hi! i wanna start doing art commissions or puwede rin designing a book cover. do you have any idea paano nagwo-work 'yung payment sa mga ganoon, copyright, pricing, etc? gusto ko sana i-try, but i feel so lost whenever i try na mag-search sa YT, haha! parang ang overwhelming.
thank you in advance to the people who will share their knowledge in the comment section. have a nice day, everyone!
hi! my skin is kinda maputi and balak kong bumili noong universal fix ng vice cosmetics, gusto ko sana yung natural pero mas mura kasi yung banana aaaaaaa, so im thinking na baka iyon na lang ang bilhin ko. okay pa rin kaya ang match noon sa skintone ko or baka maging too yellowish ako? please help this girlie out 😞
hi! since a lot of "authors" kuno are using chatgpt as their source (as if it's the most reliable thing in this world haha), as their grammar checker or whatever. here's my recommended books/websites/youtube channels that may help aspiring authors to gain more knowledge about writing, filipino balarila, writing prompts, book copver making etc.

1.) 12 Makabuluhan-kuno Writing Tips by pilosopotasya
nabasa ko na ito dati pa, at nitong nakaraan binasa ko ulit. and i can say that it is very helpful para sa mga authors na nagsisimula pa lang o naguguluhan kung paano sisimulan ang story nila. may kaunting background kung paano siya nagsimula bilang manunulat, mga payo, mga common mistakes sa pagsusulat sa grammar man o sa ibang aspeto. i hope people will read this more kasi for me (for me lang naman), nandito na halos lahat ng kakailanganin ng isang author na nagsisimula sa pagsusulat (or puwede ring author na gustong mag-improve pa sa larangan niya), haha! may humor pa!
2. 12 Writer Fears na dapat nating tibagin by pilosopotasya, and ShinichiLaaaaabs' Writing tips by ShinichiLaaaaabs
i've read these two many years ago na (many???) about din sa writing, supplemental material para doon sa na-mention ko above.
>youtube channels that i find very helpful:
1. Kara David
mangilan-ngilan pa lang napanood kong videos from Ma'am Kara David, and i cant clearly remember kung ano iyon basta about iyon sa writing. the reason why i recommend her channel is because, sa mga documentaries ni Ma'am Kara, ramdam mo na may puso siya sa mga documentaries niya, at sa mga script na ginagawa niya. hindi bland, hindi tunog robot. may kaluluwa. yes, matagal na siya sa journalism and maybe that;s the reason why nahasa na rin siya ng panahon, pero naniniwala akong isa rin sa dahilan kung bakit siya nakakalikha ng ganoong klaseng script ay dahil totoo siya sa nais niyang iparating sa mga manonood at nakikinig. idk if nagme-make sense pero sana gets n'yo 🤣
2. Team Lyqa
if you are looking for a yt channel na nagtuturo rin tungkol sa tamang balarila, i suggest Team Lyqa's yt channel. english grammar man o sa wikang filipino, mayroon siyang lesson tungkol sa mga iyan. subject verb agreement, would-could-should, at iba pa.
3. Abbie Emmons
matagal na rin noong huli ko siyang napanood, pero i know about writing din ang content niya.
>websites to visit na connected sa pagsusulat
wordhippo - thesaurus siya online. you can use this para hindi ka diretso kay chatgpt para magsabi ng "synonyms for said"
merriam webster - dictionary. complete dito, may meaning na tapos marami pang example sentences!
pinterest - for book cover design inspo, color palette, kapag maghahanap ng magandang fonts sa canva, kapag maghahanap ng prompts na nakakakilig, writing tips. you can find that here!
canva - for making book covers. let's stop generating AI image tapos 'yun ang gagawing cover please lang 💀 it looks meh kasi. walang dating. walang soul. okay?
pexels - ito naman website for free pictures. personally, i still haven't tried this pero lagi kasi itong nasa-suggest sa comments so i included na rin ito.
tumblr - for inspirations, prompts, etc. i only used this for a very short time so hindi ko talaga masasabi kung ano pa features niya, pero yeah, for a short period na ginamit ko siya, iyan ang mga nakita ko.
if you guys have other recommendations that can help out authors grow in writing, you can share it in the comments section.
naniniwala ako na kung gusto talaga ng isang tao, maraming paraan. at kung ayaw naman, maraming dahilan. if an author wants to be good at his/her craft, i believe he or she can do that by continuous learning --- hindi sa pagiging reliant sa chatgpt.
ang pagsusulat kasi ay isang sining --- isang bagay na never magagawa ng ai. ☺️
i also hope na may natutunan ang mga writers na na-caught na gumagamit ng AI sa akda nila. let's not normalize using AI just because we're already in the age of "technology" and "ai." i know you know the dangers of it. sa career ng mga tao, sa kalikasan, sa mundo.
for the readers naman, i hope we can give these writers a chance to improve, learn, and take accountability☺️ pero kung paulit-ulit na nangyayari, siguro time na rin para i-question ang "writer/author" kuno na iyon kung matatawag pa ba siyang writer/author or purely AI user lang? haha!
thank you for reading this long-ass yap! haha! the words that i typed above are my opinions only, you can share yours too but please let's keep the comment section calm and kind 😄
here are my favorite book covers sa wattpad! yung iba mula sa authors na fina-follow ko and yung iba naman na-add sa library from recos/algorithm at nagandahan ako sa cover (i do judge a book by its cover, yes😅)
small town, sunset and you - added sa lib kasi parang ang nostalgic ng feels! it's giving 'we keep this love in a photograph' haha!
after we broke up - i like the simplicity and big letters!
scars and maybes - i may be biased on this one because i love the color pink, haha! but ang cute talaga nito.
perfect little accident - cute din! ang balanced nung pagka-red sa medyo yellowish/beige na background, i love the cursive font din.
letters to rael - another favorite! bukod sa maganda content, haha! gustong gusto ko yung effect niya na parang ni-cross out yung ibang words with ink tapos naka-focus/ encircle yung title
the great war - pink ulit, tapos may flower flower! ang cutie lang.
WIAL and Love - All - i believe sila ang nagpapatunay na simplicity is beauty. periodt.
the first three pics on the second slide - i love them too! the color palette, and the aesthetics!
very truly yours, simone - i love the cursive font na parang flowy and very romance coded!!
dear andy lim - cute cute cute cute
FINELILY'S book covers - i only included one pic in this post pero lahat ng book covers niya maganda I SWEAR like super eye candy. tapos hindi paulit-ulit yung fonts na ginagamit. I LOVE EVERYTHINGGGG
12. VASTRALUST'S book covers - again isa lang ulit sinama ko pero omg mama mia, if u look at her acc on wp, i swear ang gaganda lahat ng book covers! minsan napapaisip na lang ako kung gaano siya ka-creative para maisip yung ganoong design, haha!
13. and lastly CEIYURI'S covers - isa lang ulit kasi lahat naman ng book covers niya maganda. maganda. creative. speechless ako.
ang problem ko lang sa ibang book covers ay supeeeer liit ng name ni author, haha!
kayo, ano fave book cover n'yo?
