By Reimena Yee FINALLY YESSS THE NEWS IS OUT!
My new middle-grade adventure graphic novel MY AUNT IS A MONSTER is about a POC blind girl writer and her (formerly) World’s Greatest Adventurer aunt with a big secret. :O You may recognise Lady Whimsy from a post awhile ago!
A bit more in the cut.

By Reimena Yee I'm honoured to be the artist of this poster for ONCE UPON A TIME International Storytelling Festival - an online initiative for kids around the world to read to each other. Learn more and maybe get your kid to join? :O
By Reimena Yee A stream-of-consciousness post today. An unfinished rumination on how an artist decolonialises the craft and meaning of what a story is.

By Reimena Yee This Sunday, June 14 2020, I’m going to be on an online author’s interview to talk about my life as a comics creator. If you’re interested in knowing about my life, my villain origin story and my craft - this is the rare opportunity to ask those questions and hear my voice/accent live.
Registration is required for the event (link): bit.ly/TMC1DL1
The timezone is GMT+8, Malaysia time.
This event is part of the book launch for my upcoming graphic novel with Tintin Pantoja, The Maker’s Club! The full schedule and programming can be found on the Difference Engine website.
Listen one of the reasons I advocate for lengthy schedules for artists is because publishers don't build in paid time-off for their freelancers and authors and stacked back-to-back projects can lead to injuries like the ones currently in my neck and shoulder
Comics is all fun and games until you have to study head angles and abstract them into your style -- then it's like, wth why is drawing so technical and difficult
so i was interviewed, and @buttermilkart got featured on @VulcanPost today 🥲 what a day. thanks to everyone who has supported and encouraged me so far - you the best 🥺💖 stay tuned for more!
