My takeaways from this brilliant book? The good ol’ days had some bad ol’ times. You have to accept the past as it is, warts and all and not just indulge in nostalgic views through rose -tinted glasses. You don’t get to pick and choose the past. Someday this will book will be talked about as a classic in the Singapore Literature Hall of Fame. Use your SG Culture Pass credits to support our local authors. #TheBookishPapa1

I may have left San Francisco, but San Francisco has never left me. So you can imagine how thrilled I am to be returning to Omnivore Books on 2 November, this time to discuss The Food of Singapore Malays: Gastronomic Travels Through the Archipelago, in conversation with none other than Dianne Jacob, author of Will Write for Food! For years, Omnivore was one of my favourite haunts. I could happily spend hours browsing its shelves, discovering new titles and drawing inspiration from the work of other food writers. Never did I imagine that one day I’d be sitting there as an author myself! Having Dianne as my interviewer makes the occasion particularly special. Years ago, when writing a book was still just a dream, I came across Will Write for Food at the San Francisco Main Library. I had little idea of where to begin, and her writing helped me find my way. Who would have thought that the very person whose book guided me through those early uncertainties would one day be asking me about the finished work? To my friends in San Francisco and across the Bay Area, please come and join us! You might be surprised to learn just how much this part of California contributed to the making of The Food of Singapore Malays. I’m looking forward to sharing those stories with you. And yes, I’ll be bringing along some delicious cakes and cookies from Singapore! 2 November 2026 | Omnivore Books, San Francisco I would love to see you there! ❤️

This writing journey has taught me so many things, and I am grateful for all of it. It’s true our obstacles are part of our path. Today, my first novel is 25 years old, and it’s still available in print. Happy birthday to The Stones of Mourning Creek. Tonight I want to celebrate all the writers out there who are trying so hard and are studying the craft and are getting up and putting words to paper and creating magic and beauty. May your hearts find contentment and joy. I know there are days that are hard. I’ve been there too, more times than I care to count, crying to the trees and God and the wind. But I wouldn’t change it. I’m still here; I’m still writing. Let’s never forget to celebrate. 🥂🙏❤️ #stillwriting #stillpublishing #firstnovel #amwritingfiction #writingencouragement

📚DEAREST INTIMATE📚 ▪️Dearest Intimate, 2022 ▪️Autora: Suchen Christine Lim ▪️Editorial: @marshallcavendish ▪️476 páginas Hace ya un tiempo leí “Dearest Intimate”, de Suchen Christine Lim, una autora de Singapur a la que no conocía y que, por lo que he visto, tampoco se ha publicado demasiado por aquí. Lo leí en inglés y tenía pendiente hablar de él desde entonces. Tras la muerte de Chan Kam Foong, una famosa intérprete de ópera cantonesa que actuaba en papeles masculinos, su nieta Xiu Yin recibe el diario secreto que dejó escrito. A través de sus páginas descubre la relación de su abuela con la mujer a la que llama “Dearest Intimate”, su vida en China y su viaje al Nanyang antes de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Al mismo tiempo, esas cartas hacen que Xiu Yin empiece a cuestionarse su propia vida y su matrimonio. La historia me gustó mucho. Me interesó especialmente esa forma de ir reconstruyendo una vida a través del diario y de conectar dos generaciones de mujeres separadas por muchos años, pero enfrentadas a sus propias ideas sobre el amor y sobre la vida que se supone que deben llevar. También es una novela que exige bastante al lector. Hay partes que se me hicieron bastante densas y, al estar leyéndola además en inglés, hubo momentos en los que me costó avanzar. No fue una lectura especialmente rápida para mí y creo que en algunos pasajes habría agradecido algo más de ligereza. Aun así, me alegro mucho de haberla leído. La ópera cantonesa tiene muchísimo peso en la novela y sirve también para acercarse a una parte de la historia y de la cultura de Singapur que aparece muy poco en los libros que solemos encontrar aquí. De hecho, la propia obra ha sido destacada precisamente por la importancia que concede a este mundo artístico, hoy mucho menos presente en Singapur. Es un libro que probablemente no habría descubierto si no hubiera salido un poco de las novedades que llegan habitualmente a nuestras librerías, y solo por eso ya me parece una lectura interesante para recomendar. ¿Habéis leído alguna novela de Singapur? Libro Dearest Intimate, de Suchen Christine Lim, fotografiado sobre una mesa de madera. La cubierta es azul violácea, con el título en amarillo y varios rostros dibujados con líneas rojas que se entrelazan entre sí. En la parte superior aparece el nombre de la autora y, en la inferior, la indicación “A Novel”.

I thought I missed this exhibition, but I learnt from Terence Chua it‘s been extended till 13 Sep. “What If?” – part of The Portals Experience – showcases 99 works in the history of science fiction and fantasy in Singapore. And there’s my maiden published book. The library didn’t use its precious first edition though. I hear it fetches a couple of hundreds in the book-collecting market.

Since Teochew is suddenly a talking point, you may want to check out my essay in Felix Cheong’s anthology “Letter to My Mother”. It talks about my Teochew-speaking mum and how my family shaped our lives around her.
