Happy Hapa Issue #41 - Peaceful Meditation: Clear your mind...happy thoughts...forget the troubles of the world...don't think bad thoughts...oh too late.

Happy Hapa Issue #38 - The Writing Process: Anyone ever been curious about how I go about writing my comics? Well you're in luck! Here is a preview into my writing process!

Happy Hapa Issue #31 - Fun Times With Grandma: I will always cherish the fun times I've had with my grandmother during the years I lived with her. Thankfully as I write this, she is still well and as lucid as ever, though I miss her dearly. This comic just about sums up those good times we've had together.

Happy Hapa Issue #22 - To Be Or Not To Be Asian: Hapas like any mixed-race people can often find themselves caught between worlds, but the majority of us look just like a full-blooded Asian, or certainly not at all white (for Eurasian Hapas). The point here is that society will not care to see the difference between a Hapa and an Asian, and treat us the same. But at the same time, Asians seem to be torn between welcoming us as one of them, or pushing us away. It can be very distressing for some Hapas growing up on whether to identify more with their Asian heritage or not, and it doesn't help that we get mixed signals from the Asian community, but no matter what, society sees us as all the same.

Happy Hapa Issue #17 - Ethnic Ambiguity: This comic is dedicated to all the ethnically ambiguous looking folks out there who are frequently asked, "What are you!?" When it comes to being half-Asian, half-white, our looks do not always fall on a linear scale of how white-to-Asian we appear, but more like a triangle with the three corners being: White, Asian, Ambiguous and you would place a dot somewhere in the triangle to represent us.

Happy Hapa Issue #18 - Pet Priorities: Pet stores make any long walk worth it. It's an indisputable fact. It's best done with friends of course.
