I’m Thankful For This

Webtoon Schedule Trial
Allow me to take a breath into the beautiful Monday morning air and gather all the right energy before continuing to write today’s post.
*inhale*
*exhale*
Ok, let’s continue 🙂
Hey there! Happy Monday!
So today I just want to share with you a little bit of my knowledge the process of making a Webtoon. But first you need to do this.
Planning your task. I need to follow a plan in order to do this. So I planned out what task I should do on each day in a week and allowed myself to take one day rest away from work so that I can be ‘human’ again. I have to follow this schedule because I don’t want to suffer from burnout because it happened last time I did my comic strip. I pushed myself to publish 2 comics in a week, but it had an impact on my body and my mental health. I remembered at that time I didn’t find enjoyment in drawing hence I discontinued making them and just deleted the whole comic from Webtoon.
This time, I want to do things properly. Although last week was a trial, I managed to release a new episode just in time for bedtime. New episode 4 read here.
This is my original schedule I had planned for the past two weeks.
But as I have gone through the work, I realized it wasn’t what I thought it’d be. I completely forgot that I had a second page to draw from episode 5. Episode 4 that already posted yesterday (you can read here) has been already in hand (I made one week in advance). I did this so that I won’t be too busy juggling between my Webtoon work and also do things in my real life (being a parent and a mom). Besides being busy doing this comic, I also have to clean, cook for the family and send my daughter to her therapy. And this is what it turned out; the realistic things happened last week.
Mon – Script/storyboard/proofread
Tue– sketch/typeset
Wed– sketch/lineart
Thu– lineart/flats
Fri– flats/shading
Sat– shading/background
Sun– shading/review/draft//fix typeset/schedule new episode/publish new episode
Last night was a bit of a mess. If I didn’t forget about the second page, fix all the typeset and fix the spacing between each panel that close together, I wouldn’t be so nervous and feeling a little bit panicky race against the time… but to my relief I managed to do it on time. Yipeee! 🙂 No more, I make the same mistakes. Huhu.
P/s: You can copy my original schedule as your guidance. And read my Webtoon comic and subscribe to it if you aren’t already. Thank you!

My Webtoon Series Is Out (Soft Opening)
Happy Monday lovelies!
I have published my romance/slice-of-life webtoon series today. I can’t believe I am finally doing this. I don’t know what will happen after this but I am determined to make this first series work. So lovelies I present to you my very first webtoon series Jagged Heart.
Sypnosis:
Daisy expresses her love for cosplay. While people think she is weird or just lively like her best friend, Lily, she is actually an introvert who always dreams of one day she could say out loud what her heart desires. One of her dreams is to become the most popular high school boy, Cole, who also happens to be Lily’s older brother.
However, things lead to another and she is caught in a whirlwind she could never imagine she’d explore.
I only posted 4 episodes so far including the epilogue. I put on hold episode 4 so that I won’t be rushing to finish episode 5 which is currently still in the sketching process.
Ideally, it is better to keep the series updated every week on the same day so that’s what I will do for the next coming week. I’ll post every Sunday around 9-11 pm EST. (It’ll be 3-5 am in Swiss time) So make sure you hop on to the webtoon to read it. Drop some comments and please give my work a like if you love it. It’s months and months of work so I need your support to make my desperate soul happy. Huhu.

Also, you can follow my new TikTok about my webtoon series here. Any new episodes or perhaps different stories will be also posted here.
Spring, Ramadhan and updates
Hello, lovelies!
I apologize for not giving you any updates about life, uh, not that anyone would even care, but I guess seeing this site still exists and the plan still running I feel obliged to write something.
Chirp! Chirp!
Spring’s here. Yet I’m not ready yet to let go of my sweater (or my winter jacket). The crispness of the cold air still embraced me and the warmth of the sun crept only for a few days last week. So sometimes I get confused:D Do you feel the same as I do?
Ramadhan Mubarak
Despite the strange weather transition, my family and I are fortunate that we do not have to fast Ramadhan in the summer as in previous years. At least we didn’t feel that thirsty and agitated since the weather is still cold. The sungkai (as Bruneians said when they break the fast) time is not as long as during the summertime when we have to wait until 10+pm to break the fast. 8+pm is nonetheless doable.
I have so many plans for food that I want to cook for Sungkai. It’s the only time when I feel the motivation to cook and try new recipes is at its highest. I didn’t even feel embarrassed if the attempt failed in front of my mother-in-law. Lol.
The Lost
Sad it ever happened. This is the answer to my hiatus that happened last August. I couldn’t constantly produce many stickers every month since then because my father passed away and we had to go back to Brunei the next day after we heard the news. My brain could not function properly at that time and I felt so unproductive. The loss was so sudden as to truly open our eyes. And since my mother-in-law only had him in her life and now he’s gone, we are the one who needs to take care of her. We brought her to live with us in Geneva. Hence, why I mentioned her earlier.
The Online Shop
I don’t want to give up yet selling my stickers on Etsy. I said six months, that’s the only time I put this up for trial. If there aren’t any sales, I’ll close the shop. Then six months went by, and STILL no sales. I have no idea what I did wrong. Is it because my stickers are not cute enough? Are they expensive? Or I didn’t do a lot of promotion?
Those of you who have the answer, please give me some advice and I allow you to criticize my shop so I can make a few improvements. Check my Etsy here and please leave a few reviews here. That makes me happy.
Webtoon
I have talked about it many times and I have postponed the release many times. Those who have been waiting for so long that I publish my webcomic on Webtoon, I truly apologized. The process took longer than I thought and only in the first month of this year I was back on the job. I now safely say that it is left for the proofreader aka my husband to check the comic before I posted it on Webtoon. So stay tuned guys for the update😉
Happy Spring and Ramadhan Mubarak to all, wish you all a happy, safe, and blessed Ramadhan❤️
Goals and Art
I want to pat myself on the back for coming up with so many sketches these few days. This had made the pages of my sketchbook only a few left empty.
2022 I want to reopen my Etsy shop where I can sell some of my illustrations that will be made into the digital planner stickers and print.
Before this, I sold colouring pages black and white digitally. However, that didn’t grab much attention than my Fiverr gig, which at that time the sales went far well. It was a simple gig; I gave services to draw kids colouring pages for certain prices. The prices were damn cheap. I attracted several buyers, but there’s this one regular buyer who bought my gig so many times that put some orders before I could even begin his current order. I got too overwhelmed and spent hours and hours completing the gig and that led me to put my Fiverr gig on hiatus.
Back in that day, I didn’t know how to limit the orders – I didn’t even know the setting existed. Lol. But that’s okay, I guess. Since I know how it works now I’ll begin again, but not this sooner. I’m focusing more on creating digital products for my Etsy shop.
Currently, I’ve been busy creating the ‘breakfast‘ and ‘Daisy‘ themes. However, it’s still a long way to go. It’s one of my goals for this year. Have I told you I also want to publish my romance & comedy comic on Webtoon? That too has been keeping me busy. I don’t know when I able to complete it, but for sure the mission is to publish the first 3 episodes on the platform. If that attracts many readers or even nice the Webtoon editor’s attention, that’ll put a smile on many faces; my parents, my in-laws, my husband, and myself once again.
If they hire me, at least I could help my husband to pay my daughter’s therapy bill and help buy any necessities for the household. But yeah, I’ll let you guys know when it gets published.
Do follow my Instagram for my work and give them some love. Merci beaucoup!
