Welcome one and all to the world of the GRUMS. A fantastical world, populated by characters with stick legs and a distinctively unique shape.
“MY LIFE AS A GRUM” centers around the day-to-day adventures of Squib, an impulsive little fellow with sloped brow and a knack for speaking his mind, and his best friend, all-around-good-guy Pat. Throw in an assorted cast of oddly shaped characters, each with their own distinctive personality, and you have MY LIFE AS A GRUM.
Tune in Sundays too see what these colourful characters and their friends, get up to next!
What People Are Saying:
"Tired of the same 'old' cliched comic strips? Suffering from comic strip pablumitis? Take "My Life As A Grum" once a day for two weeks and you too will see that your life is infinitely better than on the other side (where the grass is grummer)."- Tim Lasiuta, Red Deer, Alberta
"My Life As A Grum works well as an all-ages comic strip. The colourful characters, clean, crisp linework, and the uniquely imaginative world of the Grums, all lend themselves quite well to a comic that's really a lot of fun to read."- Kevin de Vlaming, The Fabler

Old Gym Socks And Dirty Underwear
Old Gymm Socks And Dirty Underwear is the culmination of a years worth of work, and a love of cartooning. I had the idea of self publishing A "My Life As A Grum Collection", last August and begun work on assembling my strips in a format suitable for the printed page. After months of work I started to shop it around to printing companies locally and was surprised by the amount of money it would cost to self publish. I decided the other day that regardless of whether or not it was designed to be printed I could still post it on the website for free. So please check the top of the page and navigate to "Book" and check it out. I'm considering releasing it as a "ebook", but haven't quite found the time yet. Check it out and let me know what you think by emailing me at rhian@mylifeasagrum.com. Thanks.
