5 Facts about Polaris Musim Dingin 🌟💙🌟: . 1️⃣. It is one of the longest books I've ever penned; at around 79,000 words! 2️⃣. Yet, it took the shortest amount of time for me to write, at exactly 7 days. 3️⃣. I almost decided against publishing the book entirely. My editor, @tsaputrasakti , is one of the only persons who knows about how conflicted this book made me feel.😔 4️⃣. I had never been to Otaru--the setting for the majority of the book--at the time I was writing this novel. ☃️ 5️⃣. Actually, aside from Tokyo and Osaka, I had never been to any of the places I've written in the book. . Do you still have questions about Polaris Musim Dingin? Drop your questions in the comments section below, and I'll do my best to answer everything. 🤗 . #alicialidwina #polarismusimdingin #bukugramedia #bukugpu #bookstagramindonesia #bukubaru #novelbaru #noveljepang #bibliophile #authorsofinstagram #penulisnovel

Have you ever felt "cold" inside? Not the kind that comes naturally when the temperature drops, but the kind that haunts you whenever you feel alone and helpless--whenever you feel unwanted? . When I was writing this book, I was at the lowest point in my life. Back then, it felt like all the walls were collapsing on me, and I didn't have anyone I could share my problems with. Life, in all honesty, felt like a torture. It took my everything to stay sane--with writing being my sole solace of comfort. . So maybe that's why I managed to finish writing this book so fast; in 7 days. . Maybe that's why I was so entranced by the story I was trying to weave; because just as the characters in this book struggled and danced and thrived in my head, I secretly had hoped that I, too, would find strength within myself to do the same. . And if there is anything I'd want the readers to take from this book, it is strength. . The kind of strength that could save you. The kind of strength that brings hope; not the strength to withstand everything-- but just enough to get you through another day. . 🌟"Polaris Musim Dingin"🌟 Available in bookstores: January 14, 2020 . #alicialidwina #bukugpu #novellokal #novelbaru #bukugramedia #bukuyoungadult #yafiction #bookstagram #bookstagramindonesia #polarismusimdingin

[E S C A P E] . There's always something magical about a weekend "escape" with a friend, especially when I'm exploring things I'm passionate about; books, arts, and food. . I have to thank @sheila.valtersix for being such an amazing partner in crime today. Will definitely be visiting these awesome places again! @post_santa @transitsanta @erasmushuis_jakarta

[SUNSET] . Definitely one of my favorites. 🌅 Just between you and me, this majestic scenery gave me an idea to start on a new project 😉 . So yes, I'm currently planning for my next novel project! . So far I've come up with around 65 different scenes, and focused on 5 different characters. (In comparison, UNSPOKEN WORDS had 37 scenes during the planning phase). As the setting for my next novel is NOT in Indonesia, I'm currently swamped with research materials as well as my outline draft. . If everything works out, I'll be using the Eid holiday solely to draft this book, so wish me luck! . (65 scenes in 9 days... I should be stocking up on my vitamins....) 💊 . P.S. Untuk teman-teman yang menunaikan ibadah puasa, semangat yaa! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
