READ ON...
"Hey Pat, I just received and read the latest TheWA Issue #5. Love
it! You got balls man. Your honesty is scary and really refreshing.
It’s just such a cool concept. Be sure to let me know when my
subscription is up so I can renew!"

WHO or WHAT is The Wandering Artoholic?
The Wandering Artoholic is a 100 page zine (independent
magazine-book) that has been self-published by writer / artist /
life-liver, Pat Lackenbauer, for the past two years as a running
autobiography of his life. To date is has been released as a physical
copy every two months to readers globally.
This eBook is an amazing selection of some of the very best parts of
the first eight issues of The Wandering Artoholic that came out
between 2007-2008. Pat personally sorted through each and every one to
put together what he feels are the most interesting and representative
sections, all for your consumption.
"I am completely STOKED about this eBook! I spent mega hours reading
through all my past issues and excited about the parts I have chosen
to represent the first two years of my strange little publication, The
Wandering Artoholic. I really feel the readers will be able to get
behind my story (which is really my LIFE) and the ideas in this book,
not only as entertainment, but also because of the emotional content
that fuels the core of this book. It may be about my life but I KNOW
every person who reads it will be able to relate to one thing or
another, on some level."

READ ON FOR MORE DETAIL
THE WANDERING ARTOHOLIC IS ESSENTIALLY A RUNNING AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF
PAT’S LIFE, STRIPED DOWN TO THE CORE, WARTS AND ALL. THE GENERAL
CONCEPT IS OF A REGULAR GUY OUT SOUL SEARCHING AND “DIGGING IN”,
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE HELL HIS LIFE (ALL OUR LIVES) IS ALL
ABOUT. HE IS ON A GRAND QUEST TO FIND REAL MEANING, WHILE DOING HIS
BEST TO CHASE DREAMS AND FIND PASSION IN ALL HE DOES.
ON A DAY-TO-DAY BASIS YOU ARE ABLE TO READ ABOUT THE EMOTIONAL
ROLLER COASTER OF HIS LIFE. What’s it like mid-life when you can’t
make it work with the women you love, you have left the company you
helped build the last nine years and without work, your Dad has had a
heart attack and mortality faces you head on.
How do you move forward? How do you cope? Where is life leading you?
The zine also follows him on solo road trips in the “Mighty
Element” as he hobos around Canada, the USA and internationally,
soaking in his surroundings and looking for individuals seeking out
life’s great mysteries and adventures! Read how he chases his dream
of being an artist, and/or doing something creative full time? (like
this eBook!) How do his family and friends fit in? What about his past
struggles with demons and continued difficulties? Who is Pat
Lackenbauer, and what does the future hold for him?
NEEDLESS TO SAY - THE BOOK DELVES IN DEEP
"Thanks for issue #3. It blew me away...you have no idea how it much
it touched me and made me realize that there are other people out
there who have walked the same heart breaking journey in life. I am
thrilled to have someone that actually understands the torment and all
of the other emotions that go with devastating loss. Thanks with "all
my being" for opening another door of my closure.
Keep up the fantastic work...you are truly touching others lives in
such a remarkable way."
Tracy Schwartz - Wellesley, ON, CA
Of course, throughout, you will also find LIGHTER MOMENTS with
Pat’s version of TOP 11 lists, (because he can) his mini-comic strip
(Pin & Pang), famous quotes, “patisms” and philosophies, and his
own personal look at this fascinating, yet screwed up world of ours.

Basically Pat is your typical human being, letting lose and speaking
directly from his heart with little censoring. What you see/read is
what you get! This ain’t no “reality” TV show folks, edited to
“shock” and Pablem fed to the masses. At the end of the day,
everyone has a story to tell but few tell it, and not in such a unique
and graphic way. Pat strips down his feelings and lays them bare for
all to see, and so far his dedicated subscriber base have heaped much
appreciated praise on his continued effort.
"It's here! (TheWA Issue #5)
It will prolly sound strange coming from someone you've never met--I
know it sounds strange to say it--but you inspire me. It's not that
you're chasing a dream--a fair number of people in my realm are doing
their things in open defiance of parental/societal approval and let us
not forget financial realities. It's the unabashed honesty with which
you go about it. Particularly emotional honesty. I had come to believe
it was a myth--or, at best, extinct. I'm rarely this happy to be
wrong, but here I am.
TheWA is like reading someone's--well, someone's journal. Did you
intend it to be the perfect subway reading? And I love the pen-and-ink
drawings. Thanks very much for letting TheWA wander down to New York
City...much appreciated!
Amazing work--congratulations!!!
so...erm...thank you.

You’ll find Pat’s writing style is quick and loose and on the
fly, like reading out of someone’s private journal. Here and there
he slows it down a bit to express a more creative atmosphere. The
drawings are the same, all done in ink, quickly, just as they pass
through his daily life. (NOTE: NO ERASURES WERE USED IN THE MAKING OF
THESE IMAGES) It is generally fast paced and even a bit messy,
purposely. He never planned for it to be glossy and “perfect” and
completely thought out. It unfolds as his life does, sometimes with a
great deal of concentration, and sometimes very chaotic and filled
with uncertainty.
In this generation of REALITY TV SHOWS AND INTERNET STARS, it’s
not so odd to get a glimpse behind the scenes of someone’s life.
However, what Pat brings to the table is unique in HOW it is
presented…WITH SUCH EMOTIONAL HONESTY.

So there you have it fellow ARTOHOLICS! We’re sure anyone that
picks up this eBook will relate to some part of it letting you know
none of us are truly alone.
"I truly hope you will come along for the ride Artoholics! It has
always been my intention to pose universal questions, inspire creative
thought and ideally, motivate others as I walk along my own ragged
path.
Now listen friends, be WARNED, it can get pretty BUMPY along the
way! But hey, what is life without a few missteps here and there.
We’ll find our footing again somewhere along the way! Cheers and all
the best Artoholics! ENJOY!"
