Tom started Gunnerkrigg Court in 2005, posting it online for free, and has been posting pages three days a week since. The comic is now his full time job. He used to live in England but moved to Rhode Island in 2021. He loves pigeons of all kinds.
""Gunnerkrigg has had a vice grip on my heart since its initial debut years ago. Between its lovable and unforgettable cast and a most charming execution of mythology pantheon in a school setting, Tom's sublime storytelling has left an indelible mark on me, and I will always look forward to the next adventure he pens.""—Irene Koh (The Legend of Korra, Overwatch: New Blood, Marvel Comics (2019) #1000)
