About the Author/Illustrator: Tyrel Boelsma

Hmmmm... Okay, umm I'm 19 years old, I live in Chilliwack, BC. I enjoy reading, writing, love movies and musicals. I started writing "Tales of an Injun" in grade 11 socials studies class while we were talking about the schools that natives used to be put into where they were forced to forget about their heritage... I started to remember elementary school and not really wanting to study native stuff (being 1 of only 4 natives in the class) and started thinking it's kind of the opposite of what it used to be. I don't hate myself, I do however hate stereotypes, especially when I see my friends actually falling deeply into them. Well, that explains the title of the comic and the first 3 issues... After that it just became about me in grade 6, but I liked the title so I kept it... But I'm rambling now and think I should stop. Anyways... keep an open mind when reading the comics and know that it's what happened, we were all asshole children, Raven and I sometimes more than others... but whatever... it's in the past...
