Aurique Ullas

Welcome!

I’m a fifth grader with big dreams, an even bigger imagination, and a slightly smaller twin brother, Aurhaan (he claims he’s taller, but the jury’s still out). When I’m not buried in books like Diary of a Wimpy Kid or Big Nate—both of which I’ve read so many times that the characters probably consider me a roommate—I’m either sketching cartoons, building my epic Lego city, or thinking about how cool it would be to design my own house (with a slide instead of stairs, obviously).

I’m also the proud creator of The Unlikely Adventures of a LEGENDARY INTROVERT, a series that combines all my favorite things: humor, heart, and the occasional awkward moment that makes you want to disappear into your hoodie. Someday, I hope to see Arik (my main character and possibly my alter ego) on the big screen—because if Marvel can do it, why not me?

People say I’m creative, but honestly, I just write and draw what I know. Family drama? Check. Awkward moments? Check. Finding a way to be yourself when the world wants you to be someone else? Triple check. I guess it’s the combination of living life as a kid, having a twin who’s basically my arch-nemesis and best friend rolled into one, and endless inspiration from the weird and wonderful world around me.

If you’re here, welcome to my world of comics, stories, and random jokes that might make you laugh—or at least groan in that “Wow, I can’t believe he just said that” kind of way. Thanks for stopping by. And yes, I’m still working on the slide staircase idea. Stay tuned.
