About the blogger

My name is Alan Gardner and I am the writer and editor of TDC. I put myself through college as an editorial cartoonist for my college papers as well as The Herald Journal – a daily paper in Northern Utah. In 1999, my wife and I discovered we would be the parents of a set of triplets. I left my job with the Herald Journal to pursue higher paying work and began a career in web design and development. In 2005, I started this blog as a means of understanding the state of the cartooning industry in a web based world.
