━━━ 🪁 DEAR READER ! ִֶָ˚⊹ I know first-hand how difficult it can be to make graphics of all kinds, so my aim is to teach you everything I've learned (and anything I'm still learning) in very simple, easy to follow steps 🫶

I think there's a common misconception with help books in that people expect to be a professional overnight. Now for some, that may be true. However, trust me when I say that it's totally ok to struggle with your first few attempts at mimicking what's laid out in the instructions to come▬it certainly took me a while before my own graphics stopped looking absolutely atrocious...like we don't talk about how awful they were, ok? I've pretty much blocked them from my memory.

So, with that said, I hope the following tutorials are helpful in some way, shape or form <3

A few rules and explanations will be listed below so make sure to grab some popcorn and have a read☝️

┊⠀⠀┊

i. ִֶָ˚⊹ Will this book include all types of graphics ?  ━━ Yes! I have plans to include more than just covers in this help book (eg. gifs, manips etc.).

ii. ˚⊹ What apps do you use ? ━━ For editing, I use a combination of Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Lightroom, and Ibis Paint. Please note, you do not need to purchase Adobe Photoshop in order to achieve the things I'm gonna walk you through in this book▬it's just what I happen to use and what I'm most familiar with. Photopea is a fine, free substitute (which I know sort-of enough about to provide any directions to similar photoshop features).

iii. ˚⊹ Will you provide resources/links ?  ━━ I'll be curating a Pinterest board with any resources used in my tutorials! If you aren't following my Pinterest already, it's @swriteswp <3
