Graphic Shoppe

Written by -
I was a crappy writer.

Let's face it. The past was a cobblestoned road of mistakes and errors, and truthfully, I am still a crappy writer.

But writing's my dream and my happiness, so why in the world would I stop doing it? 

Those were the shuffling rackets of thoughts encompassing my brain when I decided to open Graphic Shoppe. I wanted to write, not to design, but I couldn't hide the significant part of my heart that had the admiration for decorating.

It was another risk. Another jump I'd have to take in order to be where I wanted to be. 

So you can guess what I did.

I went for it.

I ramsacked Pinterest, while downloading all of the most stylish fonts dafont.com had to offer. Designing apps invaded the space of my mobile phone, while I would bury my head in beneath my palms to ask if I would push through.

What if I don't succeed?

If people don't read what I write, what's the use of a graphic shoppe? 

But those what-ifs made me stronger, and I did push through. I was awestruck when I started to advertise it, people were completely in love with my art.

It gained a thousand reads in its first day of publishing, and increased my number of followers. I don't regret anything, because in the end, it helped boost my confidence and enabled me to get more known as a writer.

See, that's the thing with me. I've been having a plethora of thoughts concerning my abilities, and it came to my attention that I have a talent for graphic desigining. Utterly Impossible, my novel, gained two hundred reads on it's first week of publishing. My design book, hovever, had five times more reads in a day. 

Some people take cover designing for granted, but I've seen a lot of cover/grahic shops on Wattpad that have been uploaded for a year. And no one's given their time to take a look at it.

Now, graphic shoppe is advancing with new features. This coming July, I will be offering playlist grahics, manipulated covers, manipulated banners, and movie posters.

Playlist Graphics made by Stella
Coming Soon to Graphic Shoppe


Manipulated covers made by Stella
Now available on Graphic Shoppe


I am in no way a professional graphic designer, and I truthfully have even more experience in the field of writing than with art (except if you count my past addictions to drawing, painting, and calligraphy)

For more details, you can check my Wattpad account and complete the payments.

Originaljaime : The Interview

Written by -
Winning first place in The Stellar Awards 2018 (Teen Fiction Category), here I present to you an interview with another one of the most talented authors on Wattpad -- Originaljaime . 1. Why do you write?  To escape reality and live all the lives of my characters. I write, because when writing, it doesn't feel like an obligation but rather something that feels natural. 2. How long have you been writing? I always loved reading, but the knack of writing started since I was 13 years old.  3. Do you believe in Writer's Block? If so, how do you deal with this?  Yes, I believe that Writer's Block is certainly real. I would take a short sabbatical from writing, by going out, getting a change of scenery, I would watch movies of my writing genre, listen to music and watched YouTube videos of what helped other writers. 4. What is your favourite book outside of wattpad? Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen. 5. When was the first time you started writing?

Utterly Impossible

I used to read about love -- lie awake every two a.m and earnestly open my Wattpad account to read the cheesiest, most clichè stories of all time. Under the covers and tucked away in the dark, I would be absorbed in a safe bubble I call my own. I would squeak and squeal and explain to myself how female protagonists were such oblivious people to the point it felt unreal. Bad boys became such a common sort of persona for me, as they slowly fell for the nerds. I read a story once, called The Good Girl's Bad Boy. It was about a girl named Tessie, who falls in love with her childhood bully, Cole Stone. The author's heart wrenching lines were able to pinch my heart in its hungover two am state. It was there that I realized it. Love, will be nothing compared to the most detailed of stories, and most realistic characters when the right time comes. You'll hate the boys at first, despise them, and curse the male hormone called testosterone. And when you become seventeen or eightee
