Hey, Jammers! It's Graciepopstar91 here, back with the Tuesday post.
In this weeks post, I'm going to be telling you all, about some new Animal jam merch. I found on
amazon.com! I was really amazed at all that I found, and thought it would be worth posting about, since I haven't seen most of this stuff before.
So without further ado, let's begin!
---
If you keep up with Snowyclaw's posts on Social Media, that you can see on the side of Animal Jam Spirit, you would have noticed this little post, she shared from the comic book company, Dynamite.
Now, this was pretty shocking in itself, but after looking on Amazon, I noticed there was two other comic books as well (shown above ^^)!
Currently there is three comic books, but there may be more to come.
Heres some basic information about the comics,
There isn't really a name for this comic, it is simply just 'Animal Jam #1'. You will only be able to get this comic as a Kindle Ebook, or on comiXology. You can preorder this, and it will arrive in your Ebooks May 17th 2017! It costs $3.99.
Now, I do not believe it's made by Animal Jam HQ, but I believe their probably partnering with Dynamite perhaps, to deliver this comic books information, about Jamaa.
This one is just called 'Animal Jam', but otherwise really doesn't have any title. This one is not an Ebook, but is actually a hardback comic book, which I find interesting.
This is a comic book that I really want to read, because it seems to explain even more of the Animal Jam history.
I think this, because it says how theres a bunny named Clover Greenleaf, and I'm wondering if that bunny turns out to be Peck, or just a Jammer in Jamaa.
This book costs $12.99, and you can preorder it for August 22nd 2017.
This book is called 'Animal Jam #2', and will be the sequel to 'Animal Jam #1' I'm assuming.
You can preorder this book as an Ebook or comiXology, for $3.99, and it will arrive in your Ebook's June 14th 2017!
I'm honestly not sure what this book will be about, but it shows Peck running away from phantoms, so is this book the one we've been waiting for, that will lead to an adventure, and explain how Peck is missing?
We will have to wait and see!
Also, there's a new AJ toy out, that I got a few days ago!
If you keep up with some blogs, you may have seen this new toy, called 'Friendship Cottage'.
You can buy this toy at Walmart for $14.88, and the code you get with it, will give you,
(From left to right)
Heart Ottoman
Heart Couch
Hanging Heart Lamp
And when you click on it,
Hearts come out of the Ottoman and Couch, and the Lamp turns on!
And now, heres a close up of the Raccoon and Bunny.
Personally, I think the Raccoon is probably the cutest part of the toy. I love the shape that AJHQ made it, with it holding it's tail, and I love the color scheme they chose for it.

And now for the second part of this post!
I told my friend Karalee, that I would post up some of my drawings today, and I asked her if she could give me some tips on what to improve in my art.
I think my drawings skills have improved quite a bit, compared to some of my drawings I made on Animal Jam in early 2016.
Here they are!
Gracie P.S. stands for 'Graciepopstar'
This drawing is of an animal's eye, and I think it may be one of my best drawings yet, I spent a while on this, adding little details/pencil marks onto this, and I'm really happy with the way it turned out.
The rest of these drawings, are drawings of humans,
I really love the way this self-portrait of myself turned out, and I think sometime I might use it as my Blogger Profile picture.
But one thing I struggle with is getting both eyes to look the same, so because I am lazy (😒), I just covered the right eye with bangs, so I think that's sorta a downfall to this drawing.
This drawing, is another self portrait, and this time I did both eyes.
But I really don't like the feet, hands, and hair. I really need to work on those three things.
What do you think? What should I improve in my drawings? Any tips from you guys?

And now, for the weekly chapter of 'We Are The Bloggers'! This week, I will be releasing chapters 2 and 3.

Chapter 2
"Whoa!" I said loudly as the vortex came to an end, and I could now see the light of day. I landed flat on my face, in the middle of a bedroom. "Ouch." I mumbled as I slowly sat up and rubbed my head. A girl with her hair up in a ponytail, with light tan skin, stared at me in shock. I stared back at her. "Coolcat?" I said to her with a gasp. "Gracie! How on earth did you get here?" Coolcat asked with joy. I looked back, and noticed I had probably fallen out of one of the shelves in Coolcat's closet. But the strange thing was, there wasn't a portal to get back. I raised an eyebrow, then turned back to look at Coolcat again. "I found a portal." I said with a low smile. "Oh my gosh.." Coolcat started, as she reached out her hand. With Coolcat's help, I was able to stand, though I felt weak in my legs, from the far drop to the floor, and going through a strange vortex. "Do you think it could be the Blogger Portal?" Coolcat wondered aloud. I nodded. "It has to be. Remember how Sarah and Swirlshine made stories about this?" I reminded her with a grin. "Yeah, I-" Coolcat started, but got cut short, by a loud, high pitched noise. "What's that sound?" I yelled above the noise. "I don't know!" Coolcat exclaimed in shock. At that moment, two girls came falling from the Blogger Portal, that suddenly appeared, then the portal closed as soon as they came out. As the two girls sat up, I realized it was Sarah and Ja. The four of us stared at one another. Before we could say anything, the same high pitch noise went off, but this time it seemed worse. Then, everything went black.
What seemed like hours later, I could slowly open my eyes. I was lying on my back, in the middle of a black room. Everything was pitch black, with no one around me. Everything was completely silent. "Hello?" I said, as my voice echoed around me. I stood up, and looked around me. My backpack was still on my shoulder, but other than that, there was nothing. I gulped, as fear controlled me. Suddenly, I heard a loud voice. "Hey!" The voice exclaimed. As if someone turned on a light switch, the room burst into color. I was in a room with golden wallpaper, with portals of various colors. "Could this day get any weirder?" I said to myself with a smirk, trying to calm myself down. Someone tapped my shoulder, and I spun around in alarm, and saw Coolcat, Sarah, and Ja. "Oh my gosh, I'm so glad to see you guys. Where are we?" I asked all in one breath. "I have no idea, but from the looks of it, it looks like some Blogger Portal land.." Ja said in awe, as she looked around the room. "I need to call my Mom, she's probably worried sick." I said, as I took my backpack off of my shoulder, and searched my front backpack pocket for my iPhone. "Oh no." I said with a slight shake of my head. "What's wrong?" Coolcat asked with concern. "I left my phone at home." I exclaimed, as I put one hand on my head in distress. "Now that I think about it, I did too." Coolcat said thoughtfully. "What are we gonna do now?" Sarah asked nervously. I shrugged, with a slight sigh. "But it's not like she would end up in this strange land. We all ended up at Coolcat's house." I reminded Sarah and Ja. I had no idea how any of us would get back home, but I knew God was in control, and something would work out. That gave me hope.
Chapter 3
That night, around 11 PM, we were still stuck in this vast, strange land. With a sigh, I pulled a teal and white colored blanket out of my backpack, and laid it on the cold hardwood floor, next to a purple portal. I sat down on it, and looked at the three other girls. "Goodnight guys. Maybe in the morning we'll be able to find a way out of here." I said hopefully. The girls nodded, and we all lied down near various portals. I closed my eyes, but I couldn't sleep at all. I was too concerned about how we'd get home. "You got yourself into this mess, you're gonna find a way out of this." I thought to myself, as a sad feeling fell over me.
That night, I tossed and turned. I finally decided to give up, and look around the land. I stood to my feet, grabbed my backpack, and begun my search, by starting near the left hallway. I noticed that each portal had a magenta wood frame, but each portal were different colors. "That's like on Animal Jam.. Theres a stone frame on each of them, but also different colors." I mumbled to myself, as I studied a pink portal. "Which means theres also- floor portals!" I said in a screaming voice, as I fell through a floor portal. My heart pounded, and tears flooded my eyes, as the swirly vortex came into view. "No!" I yelled as I practically 'swam' through the swirls. My backpack fell off, and sank deep into the vortex. At the end of the vortex, I saw a dark, gloomy forest. This time, I was able to walk out of the portal, and didn't fall out of it like last time. I stood in the forest, looking around, in complete fear. I heard an animal prancing around the forest. "Spooky.." I mumbled to myself. I sighed, knowing I had no place to go, and had no idea where I even was. I leaned against a nearby tree, and ran my fingers in my hair, as I looked up at the dark black sky. "Lord.. I know you hear me." I started to pray. "I know you're with me. And right now, I really need your help. Please show me where to go, what to do, and give my parents, and friends, peace.. Amen." I finished, with a smile. I then, decided to head out, and find a way out of this forest. "There has to be a small town somewhere around here.." I said to myself, with hope. With that, I headed out on my journey. I heard an animal prancing around again, which stopped me in my tracks. "Wait.. That doesn't sound like an animal.." I said to myself thoughtfully, as I carefully listened to the sound. "It sounds like a person.." I realized, in shock. At that same moment, I heard someone say, "Three.. Two.. One." Two people fell out of the nearby tree, and put a large fabric bag over me. "Hey!" I yelled angrily. The two people dragged the bag quickly, turning every which-way in between the trees. My heart pounded, in fright, and I felt like I was in a freaky movie, not knowing what would happen next.
It seemed like forever, before the two people finally stopped dragging the bag. "Thank goodness." I murmured. The two took me out of the bag, and I stared at both of them. There was a lady and a man, both looked to be in their late teens. The man had a black and red streak down his eye and cheek, and the lady had a shirt with a realistic cheetah on it. "Who are you?" I said as I glared at the two. "The name is Fan-man, and this is my friend, Cheetahperson123." Fan-man said with a smirk. My eyes widened. "You mean the hacker? And the character in Sarah's story that trapped us in the Blogger Portal?" I asked in disbelief. "M-m-mhm." Cheetah said with a mysterious smile. I looked around the room I was in, and realized it was a black and red room, with portals that appeared to be closed, except for one portal, that flashed purple. I looked behind me, and realized that Swirlshine, Coolcat, Sarah, and Ja, all sat on the floor, with their hands tied up. "Oh don't worry, theres more blogger's coming." Fan-man said happily. "No.." I mumbled, as I turned my head to look at Cheetah and Fan-man. I sighed deeply, realizing there was probably no way to escape now. "What do you want with us?" Swirl asked from behind me. "Our goal is to delete every blog possible, shut down Animal Jam, and keep you stuck in this land forever." Cheetah said with a smirk. "You wouldn't dare.." I said in a hoarse whisper. "Now tell me, what's your guys' blogs called?" Fan-man asked curiously. Me and the four other bloggers, looked at each other with fear. "We'll never tell." Coolcat said with slight anger in her voice. "Oh yeah?" Cheetah said rudely. I gulped.
