Mat Heagerty super happily lives in Vermont with his best buds/family. He writes awesome comics like Lumberjackula, Martian Ghost Centaur, and Unplugged and Unpopular. Mat is dyslexic and struggled a bunch in school. Now he often travels the country talking to elementary and middle school kids about the strengths of learning disabilities. During the 2023–4 school year, Mat and his family bought an RV and traveled all across the US. It was amazingly life-changing!
