Current strip

Current mood: Happy.

The comic is slowly growing in popularity... and I'm getting scared about it.

You know, I started this mainly to force myself to practice drawing, and as an exercise in discipline. (I'm good at neither.) On top of that, I like creating stories, and found the limited 4-panel comic format that I chose to be quite an interesting challenge. At first only friends of mine were following; now I look at my logfiles and see that people I don't even know are reading this. Which makes me happy.

But since I'm a person who worries constantly (hey, I wonder where Vincent picked up that character trait...), now I find myself thinking, what will those people think? If the story gets darker, will they still continue reading? If my art is not so good one day because I'm feeling a little under the weather, will they still continue? Should I start thinking what "the public" would like, or should I strictly continue to follow my own ideas, no matter what?

I shouldn't worry so much, I know. I should just do things as I have been doing them all along. I myself like my story, and there must be people out there with a mindset similar to mine, so they will like it too. Which makes me happy :)

Here's a list of reviews of Crazy Asian Drinks. The scary thing is, I have tasted several of those (one is currently still in my fridge) ...

Author's notes:

Drawing a new character is always difficult... this will take me a while to get used to.
Man, I hate sound effects. I am totally no good with sound effects.
