I did a school visit this morning at Vientiane International School and received this wonderful drawing from one of the students. They were delightful and attentive. It was precious when they asked for my autograph. I read ”A Sticky Mess” and taught them how to draw the characters. With grades 11-12, I talked about storytelling and how useful the skill is in UX and communication in general. I’ll share photos when they’re released.

This has been done before but I wanted to do my version wearing a @sabaidee.buatique bomber jacket. An homage to my favorite movie of all time, Akira, but with a tuktuk. Would it be fun to ride this around Bangkok through the traffic? Lol

The best books for children are those that help them learn about the world around them, explore their feelings and emotions, and relate to other people. A good book can also teach children how to solve problems on their own or explore their creativity in an imaginary world!

Children tend to have very active minds, which can make it difficult for them to focus on one task for more than a few minutes. So, you must write children’s stories that are interesting enough to hold their attention.

The best children’s stories are a good balance of entertaining and educational.

Happy Father’s Day to best dad anyone could possibly have. The person who made me who I am today. He supported my art cravings by enrolling me in the Art Instruction School of MN at age 13. The same school Charles Schulz went to. I’m forever thankful for the knowledge gained from my dad.

I wasn’t comfortable with the shotgun as a “firearm”. I know that’s what people have been using recently during parades. Some even used a handgun. I redrew her holding a weapon that shoots fire instead. The Sanskrit word is अग्न्यस्त्र (agnyastra) which is a form of artillery. They don’t have guns yet back in that time period.

A children's book version and a comic book version.

This year's Nang Sangkhan for Thursday is ນາງ ກີລີນີເທວີ (Nang Kirini Thevi), she wears a greenish-yellow dress with emerald ornaments, holds an elephant hook in her right hand, a firearm in her left hand, and rides an elephant. Depending on the time of day she arrives; she could be standing, sitting, lying down or sleeping.

Something fresh is in the works. I finally settled on the title of my ghost-chasing story. #teaser Here's an initial rough title design.

Vongfai ວົງໄຟ (Fire Circle, Fire Ring, Circle of Fire)

"Two sisters with connections to spirits discover they have powers and team up to fight demons invading the human world."

Haven't had a chance to redraw these panels yet. But here's the original scan I drew for the Northern Star newspaper at NIU—published November 24, 1997. That time of year is upon us.
