My wall of (fan)art is slowly growing and NOTHING makes me happier than looking at it. Before The Roots, I've never received fanart before, yet her we are 😭

So, it's been a few weeks since my book released! What happened in the meantime?

✨it wasn't an overnight success... but I'm very proud of it!

✨I got sick with shingles of all bloody things

✨started marinating a new project (this one is writing/art hybrid!!)

✨marketing is stil black magic 😆

Aaah can’t believe my book now has 50 ratings!! It was only 4 months ago that I was excited to have 14 people add my book to their “to-read” list 🥹😭😭🫶

My book is officially out, and with that I had a small celebration yesterday with friends. I even got a cake! 😭 can’t even begin to describe how thankful I am 🥹

Don’t know how else to say this but from today I am a published author!! 🎉🫣 it feels very surreal, the journey has been long and I don’t think it has hit me yet that today is THE day.
Either way, thank you for all the support, I really couldn’t have done it without you ❤️

Omg guys 😭😭😭 my book is on a real display… and will be sold in my local bookstore 😭
October 17, 2025 at 2:28 PM
Can’t believe I’m packing first ones to be sent 😭
October 14, 2025 at 7:08 PM
Omg guys it’s here… my first book, printed and REAL!!! 😭😭😭 it comes with stickers fyi!!!

The (lack of) face of someone who’s book is coming out in just over a week.

Just going to say that writing the book has made me learn SO many new things!! Most of them unexpected like: how to create cut file for stickers, how to appeal when your paypal account gets randomly banned by their "intelligence", and how to format a book for print in less than 20 attempts :D

(Also, instant payments are back online for the deluxe edition in my shop!! ❤️✨)

Guess who signed a contract with a printing house today AND finalized the book cover? 🥰🥰

Pickled cucumbers I grew from seeds! Altogether managed to fill 5 jars so far. Should I paint it? It would fit nicely with my first pickle painting from a few years back 🤣
