Visual Literacy with Singapore Teachers - oversubscribed in one day!
Sir Fong is very lucky to be invited by Colin Goh and his lovely wife Yen Yen Woo to share the stage. We will be talking to Singapore teachers about using comics and Apps in the classroom.
Just one day after the announcement, the talk was oversubscribed! They had to close down registration!
This is potentially great news for young people and students. This means that a lot of teachers are interested in learning new approaches to make learning interesting and fun for you!

A shout-out to CHIJ and Unity Primary School!!!
Thank you for your warm welcome for Sir Fong at your assembly halls! You've been a terrific audience! I'm very impressed that two of you drew these cool frames for my signature!
I am very happy to meet some of you and sign my autographs. I stayed back till 230pm on Friday to sign more books, so that there will be some signed Sir Fong comic books for you on Monday!
Also, I'd like to invite all of you to my booth at the Singapore Toy, Games and Comics Convention (STGCC)! I'm launching BOOK 4 at my booth (G28), and the STGCC will be held on Sept 1st and 2nd at Marina Bay Sands! A new collector's book mark and Sir Fong designer paper bag will also be given out!

20 more pages to the completion of Book 4!
Last night, I encountered a black hole. I dreamnt about revisiting my past as a Raffles Institution science teacher, walking around the campus and finding with satisfaction that my students are still loving science. I guess such dreams may occur when one is at an event horizon, facing an uncertain future, and the past reappears as a safe, welcoming entity. It took almost 5 years to switch from the mindset that I am no longer a school teacher, and my work should no longer be confined by the limits of being one. Fortunately, Stephen Hawking already determined that not everything gets sucked in by black holes, so memories, no matter how awesome, will not slow my evolution. If there is any baggage I am still carrying, I'm letting go and moving forward with the speed of light.
For Book 4, I put everything aside. Nothing matters except making this comic book the best I can make it, with the 4 years of experience I learnt making Books 1 to 3. My daily life is walk the dog, draw, walk, draw. Friends thought I was withdrawing, family sees me less often. That doesn't matter. All that matters is what I want to say with Book 4.
20 pages to completion. Walk, draw, walk, draw . . . :)
