Yes, I collected Labubus. I’ve banned myself for buying more though 🤣

#MondayScaries Starting any new project can be scary for me. You're starting over with a blank page. With each subsequent book, I want to be a better writer. I'm finding out more ways to plot with character arcs in mind. I'm trying to push myself concept-wise. What's scaring you this Monday?

Signed copies at Burlington Center Indigo!!!

Monday marks the start of the week and often brings on anxiety about what’s to come. My #MondayScaries is submission. To date, I have gone on submission twice. Every time I vomited. It’s tradition at this point. I’m an anxious person to begin with, and this exacerbates it.

Nothing feels as good as a brand-new, exciting plot bunny. This is why I write!!!

Getting back into drawing. I love using my new Lamy Safari. Yes, this is all a way for me to manage my anxiety.

What do I worry about? (Fellow authors, you already know and probably struggled with this list as well.) 1. Sales 2. Being a good enough writer 3. Will I sell another book? I tend to catastrophize the former and minimize the latter.

The Verve Pipe's Freshman. I thought it was about student debt. Buddy only had forty cents and he was a freshman.

New date! Our event with @rosellewriter.bsky.social celebrating Celestial Banquet with Ayesha Curry (@zandoprojects.bsky.social) will now be held on Wednesday, July 16! www.eventbrite.com/e/roselle-li...

My dream is to become famous enough to be in a Buzzfeed kittens interview video.

New York City was everything I hoped for. I met my fantastic publishing team, had a Chinatown food crawl, went to my dual book launch at Books of Wonder, and had dinner with beloved friends. It was a whirlwind trip, and I can’t help but be so grateful to @zandoprojects for everything.

It's Celestial Banquet's Publication day!!! If you love Iron Chef and the Hunger Games, my book is for you! I hope to see new and familiar faces.

Celestial Banquet launches this Tuesday, Jun 3. Pls pre-order or buy the book. If you want the sequel, you'll need to support this book first. Only I know about future shenanigans of Cai & the gang. Virtual launch on Tues @loyaltybooks.bsky.social! Event is free!

My fingers are sore, but they are done! I'll be sending them to my publisher tonight. If you want one, I will be carrying some baby ones for my event at @booksofwonder.bsky.social and @greenapplebooks.bsky.social

I want to give @stevedangle20.bsky.social a hug.

I feel sorry for #Leafs fans. Translation: I feel sorry for me. I’ve been watching this team since I immigrated to Canada in 1989. It’s been a long term abusive relationship.

1 down 100 left to go. This is the #100dumplingchallenge. I wish I were eating 100 of them, but I'll be making these little cuties for launch! I'll be making them every night until I get it all done.

Sitting at a coffee shop and working on my adult fantasy idea and my new YA fantasy idea. I'm obsessed with both. This is when I feel so lucky that I get to do this for a living.

Been working on this adult fantasy that's The Invisible Life of Addie La Rue meets Murder at the End of the World. Almost ready to send it out to a select few to see what they think. I swear this part is the most anxiety-inducing. Gaahhhhh

★ Roselle Lim “weaves together deadly magic, deliciously described dishes, and intensely personal stakes” in “dazzling East Asian–influenced” YA fantasy CELESTIAL BANQUET

2.5k on the adult fantasy synopsis. I see rte end!! Ahh so if anyone is curious, this has Murder at the End of the World meets The Invisible Life of Addie La Rue vibes.

I'm always keen to see the Celestial Banquet ARCS in the wild! Please tag me if you have one!

A scammer has stolen my identity on FB and is now doing it here. @rosellelim.bsky.social is not me.

Before I started CB's sequel, I read that writing sequels are hard. Welp. It totes is. The impostor syndrome is very very vocal.

Doodles!

Hello! First post on here and I’m posting about my ARC and dumpling bookmarks giveaway! Check my IG (same handle @rosellewriter) as here!
