EVACOMICS BLOG

Since my surgeon gave me the green light to continue my yoga classes, I have returned back to my usual classes, but I only attend them twice a week. Not sure if I will increase in the future but I think I'll take it slowly for now. Guest appearance: Classmate and patreon Colin!

It's a good excuse for everything :P

Filled with our blood and sweat, anybody wants to buy mine? :P

I feel a bit jelly :P In the beginning I was positioning myself as a mix of artist and influencer but when the books came along I retreated back to just an artist... I wonder if it is too late to go back now that I'm approaching 40 😅

Recently many people around me are chasing after this drama series called Yanxi Gonglue or called "Story of Yanxi Palace". It's been some time since there's any decent historic drama to chase with a good story, acting and cinematography. But chasing after 70 episodes does feel like doing a marathon... How about you, are you watching this series too?

Who's the same? :P

I used to post a lot of my problems on my personal account and people would start commenting on what I should do even though they may not have done it before. Many times I become even more frustrated than when I started off. Then along the way there are flame wars and friends unfriended or blocked... somehow people are merciless to people whom they never met before. Hence now I keep most of the things to myself or just message my friends privately to rant. How about you? Do you have such problem?

It is a place where Google maps fail and all hope is lost to find the specific exits... It took me a year while I was studying in Japan and staying at Shinjuku to figure out the exits and underground passages. Unfortunately I never got to meet any friends (both Japanese and foreigners) successfully whenever we wanted to meet at exit XXX. The signs were confusing and not easy to find the other one if you were at the wrong side.

I tend to wake up at... 9-11am... But if there's a hotel breakfast buffet then maybe 8.30am...

Sorry everyone, I forgot to update last week!!! So here are 2 strips at one go~ It's always troublesome to sort the photos after holidays, I wonder if my readers are the same too?

This blog post is to share my experience with people who have hernia and what to expect after surgery. Diagnose I felt a small lump that comes and goes on my right groin without any pain at the beginning of the year so I ignored it for several months. Moreover I was rushing my 4th book at that time and had no time to see a doctor. I was worried if it's something serious, I would have to take time off from the book and I would miss the deadline. But I continued to ignore the lump after I was done with the book because it comes and goes, and there was no pain. However it became worse after a replacement yoga instructor took over a class that I regularly go to in June. She made us do a lot of hip opening, stretches and core work and I felt pain a few hours later. My right groin area was in small pain whenever I walked. I couldn't tell if it was the lump causing the problem or tendon/muscles got torn so I went to see both a masseur and a TCM (traditional chinese medicine

This always happens on the first night...

But I will still recommend not having one for health sake!

So far I had to replace the soles of 2 pairs of shoes and 1 pair of sandals. Another pair of pump shoes' lining disintegrated after I walked halfway to the train station...

No bad habits because... I'm a comic artist...

How it feels like checking one at a time before going in...

I was too busy and did not do any facial for a year already. Coincidently I was invited to try out this quick facial that promises to thoroughly clean your clogged pores and sooth your skin within 30min using their very own formulated skin care made in Japan. So the deal was if it was good I will write a blog, if not I will pay for my own treatment. So as you can see, I was satisfied 😆

Getting paid as a freelancer is not easy, especially when clients pay by check... many things can go wrong... like finance department is busy, partner agency is busy, boss is busy, lost in mail, etc... One of the local retailers is owing me 9 months of sale, hence one of the reasons why I'm no longer doing books!

I'm back and so sorry I forgot to post here as well!

I created my Facebook page on dec 2010 but only decided to register my domain evacomics.com in 2013. But alas, I was too late and it was already hijacked by Hugedomains :( As you can see, they hijacked the domain I wanted to register in late 2012, during the time when my comics were going viral. I forgot how much they were selling my domain but it was later put up for sale at a whopping US$2650!!! I think it wasn't worth to buy and bought a local domain name " www.eva.sg "  instead. For the next 5 years I did not think of buying back my domain until I started wondering... why a few of my artist friends could get commission work from overseas clients but I'm kinda stuck with local clients. I did not think my comics were very local and half of it should be relatable to everyone around the world. I wouldn't say my skill is fantastic but it is not too bad neither. So I began wondering, could it be the domain name? Could it be because of the .sg at the end o
