SECRET ASIAN MAN: TIME FOR A BREAK

Like the strip says, it has been a really long, continuous run for Secret Asian Man. Sometimes I can’t believe how long I’ve been doing this. On the other hand I can’t imagine NOT doing this ever again. So consider this a bit a a break from my once monthly, once weekly, once daily, then weekly again schedule.

This is definitely not the end of SAM. I’m going to be doing a lot more with him in the future.

Now is the time to switch gears, think of new approaches, and tackle some long-neglected projects. I’m sure a combination of experiences in my life recently (like my father passing away) has lit a new fire under my ass to not find myself in a situation where it will become too late to branch out and try different things.

I want to thank everyone who has supported the strip over the years and hope you will continue to follow me through my blog, Facebook, and Twitter as I’m still going to have a lot to say and have plenty of surprises in the coming months.

Thanks and don’t be a stranger.   –TAK
