Hello I keep forgetting to promote my zine please grab a copy it's good I promise!! Itch: hiencomics.itch.io/things-i-onl... Patreon: www.patreon.com/posts/things...

Had a great day with the local Pups social! Got many hugs. Won a bottle of booze! Gave away the bottle of booze. Did some Shibari and led my friend around on all four. Went home and tried baking a leche flan cake. I don't think it came out all that well but I'm excited to give it another shot tomoz!

There's a 99% chance this guy is just generally a really nice person therefore he is just generally really nice to me but there's a 1% chance we're in a slow-burn friends-to-something-more so I guess I'm learning how to make a flan and serve him one with whipped cream and a cherry on top 👨🏾‍🍳

I keep getting depressed and keep finding reasons to live so idk life's weird it's worth holding out for another day you might randomly go see a play with friends and get many hugs then have another friend over for a homecooked lunch and immediately yearn for your next meeting upon their departure 🧐

Beautiful and Poignant. And so, SO resonating with my own journey. Thank you Hien for letting us have a peek inside, now I need to go find Emotional Alyssa and give her a cookie.

This is my first fully indie work in a long, long time. I've put many pieces of my heart into it and I'm so, so proud. Oh! And it's got alt text through-out, so it'll be accessible for screen readers too! I hope it'll be worth your while 💖✨ please enjoy!!!

There are things I only draw when I'm sad, and it's only through the act of art-making that I can navigate the dark. 56 pages of lush illustrations paired with a moving, uplifting comic. I hope you'll enjoy my new book 😊💖 Patreon: link.hiencomics.com.au/TID-P Itch: link.hiencomics.com.au/TID-I

In my feelings today so I prescribed myself many Taskmaster episodes in bed. Saw friends at Bears. Enjoyed seeing friends at Bears. Back to Taskmaster in bed. Maybe I'll go for a nice bowl of Bun Bo Hue tomorrow.

Finally got fully onboard with the crispy chili oil bandwagon only to find out it makes my tummy hurt 😭😭😭...

Thank you to everyone who has shared and checked out the book!!! I'm very grateful for the warm reception, and I'm emboldened to keep on making more things like it ☺💖✨

I'm furiously making final edits and writing the last bits of alt text for the book and just realized it's coming out in 2 hours 😱😱😱😱😱???

It was real cool to get back to my autobio roots in this travelogue comic about meeting the Magic Wand team and sitting in on the presentation of their legit scientific study on masturbation. Also, I ate so much. Like. So, so much. I regret nothing.

So what's the deal with "multiple mini Hiens" living in one brain? How do they work?? Is there a secret THIRD Hien somewhere??? Find out the answers to these internal family questions in the Things I Only Draw When I'm Sad epilogue 🧐 Coming out first thing tomorrow 😱😱😱!!

Hopemaxing by watching Zohran Mamdani's campaign videos during work breaks and remembering to hydrate more than the tears I've cried

Things I Only Draw When I'm Sad came about when I didn't want to beat myself up for feeling things deeply or needing time to process. Instead, I wanted to see if I could treat it as how my brain worked, and eventually, if it could be a strength. Coming out SOON on Nov 6 😱!!

Sad that a couple Pokemons I had on my team have their Mega Stones locked behind online play (therefore nintendo online subscription) 😢 decided to reshuffle my dudes around and I'm excited to welcome an alpha Starmie at last hehehehe 🦵🏾⭐️🦵🏾 I love this game 😭💖✨

My zine Things I Only Draw When I'm Sad pairs emotive paintings with simple cartooning to deliver its narrative. I hope the chibi Hiens work both to ground the sometimes-abstract illustrations and add levity to otherwise heavy topics! Coming soon on Nov 6th 😊💖✨!!

Had a great time doing my first Shibari demo at a local Leather / Fetish social 🤘🏾💖✨ My rope Pups had a blast, and I even tied up some new friends too ☺️ what great joy to be alive

Sad to keep hearing friends & folks call new Pokemon game trash 😥... Happy to keep playing new Pokemon game because I love it and it brings me a great deal of joy 🥰💖💖💖

There's one section of my zine (coming soon!!) that I've been wanting to rewrite for months but could never found the right words. Finally dove deep and cracked it today while listening to the new Sigrid album. It's real special. I hope you'll like it. Many pieces of my heart in this one 💖

Shibari Donkey Kong 🤘🏾✨ took about an hour to figure out and I'm very proud of it!

This is adorable cartooning and crispy clear health communication! I love it!

It's kinda sad playing the Switch 1 version of the new Pokemon game and seeing how much prettier everything is in a Switch 2 LP 😭... oh well!

🤫🤫🤫 what could this sexy little secret be?

I survived big bear flu and recovered well! Finally wrapped up my next OJST comic (it was a hard one)! Had a lovely weekend with lots of friends and belly rubs! Enthused to tackle zine printing again next week! Thank fuck for the up swing after half a month of misery!!

Recovering pretty okay from the bad bear flu / covid with one exception that I'm having a horrible time trying to sleep. You know how when you close your eyes and you slowly drift to sleep? I'm not experiencing that drift at all, and it's like I'm totally conscious and aware and awake for ages 😑

I love love LOVE seeing other artists work! I really dig @hiencomics.com.au's style and seeing how the lighting and coloring came out is a treat!

Trialed out Affinity Photo to pre-press a lil book I was really hoping to print by the end of this year 😤 the printer said I should perfect bind instead of saddle stitch which means I'd have to re-do the whole thing 😓 now the Affinity trial is over and the company's halted all sales til Nov 🫥...

Let's see if my body is ready to sleep and get the rest it sorely needs or will it refuse to cooperate close to the 20-hr mark of being horrendously unsleeping!! Place your bets now!!

After half a week of bears events, am stuck in bed with the bear flu 🫠... I didn't even make out with anyone 😭😭😭

My friends in Silksong... please don't forget you can quit and get back into the game to bench warp to your last used bench... don't be like me and backtrack every which way 😭 That said, I also don't want to stop playing so I don't mind traversing the world. Finally got first credits in 40hrs LOL

Lil gift lil wrapped ✨

Holy shit I knew the Silksong OST was good but listening to Lace on its own is bringing tears to my eyes what the fuuucckk 😭😭😭😭😭 that cello drilling down???? You know the one!!!

I am mad. Even if they didn't listen to the feedback, please keep posting your stuff here. You art is powerful and inspires many. It might never please everybody, even so, don't be stopped, don't be censored. Post and post and post, I want to see all creativity here. All of it. SFW. NSFW.

Wowowow the international drag race all stars are EATIIING!!! Slaysian Royale is super fun and compelling, and I'm a few eps into France All Stars which is so warm and loving and it's truly incredible 💖💖💖

Tried to lean out of someone else's photo but ended up with lowkey one of the best photos ever taken of me lol

Highly recommend having a Minecraft server with friends and puttinf time into making gear for them with loot they've accumulated through exploration. I made a modded bow that technically creates earth spikes when shot at a monster, but it actually looks like the monsters shit themselves to death.
