About

We make tiny pieces of writing for moments that are difficult to put into words.

Most of what’s written about feelings is written about feelings. It explains them, ranks them, gives you five steps. By the time you’ve read it you’ve thought about the feeling and you haven’t felt a thing.

Moodshop goes the other way. Each piece here has one job: put one specific feeling in you, then get out of the way.

Why it exists

Because there are nights that don’t have a name yet, and nothing on the internet is built for them. A search engine will give you advice. A friend might be asleep. This is the thing in between — two minutes of writing that meets the exact shape of what you’re in.

Why feelings are the product

You’re not buying words; you can get words anywhere. You’re buying a specific two minutes. That’s why the shelf is organised by feeling instead of by title, and why every piece is named after the thing it does to you.

Why they’re short

Because a piece that takes two minutes and actually moves you beats one that takes twenty and doesn’t. Around two hundred words each, written to be read slowly, once. Nothing here is trying to be a book.

Why there are no accounts and no subscription

Nothing you do here needs to be remembered. You pay once, the page opens, the link stays live, and that’s the end of the relationship unless you want more. There’s no inbox to land in, no card on file, no streak to keep. Moodshop can’t email you — it doesn’t have your address and never asks.

What to expect

Eight feelings today, more being written. Every one shows you its real first lines before you pay anything, and three full pieces are free. If you buy one and it does nothing for you, say so and I’ll send you a different one.

Moodshop is one person, not a company.

I chose these eight feelings, and I wrote them with AI in the loop — I’m telling you because you’d guess anyway, and I’d rather you hear it from me. What I did was decide what stays: nothing is on this shelf that I wouldn’t send to a friend having a bad night.

Terms, plainly

You’re paying for access to one web page (or, for a collection, a set of them). It’s for you — read it as often as you like, bookmark it, send someone the link with a note. Don’t republish it as your own. The writing stays mine; the moment is yours.

Payments are handled entirely by Buy Me a Coffee. Their terms cover the transaction itself. Moodshop never touches your card details.

Refunds

If a piece did nothing for you, message me through Buy Me a Coffee and I’ll refund it or send you a different feeling — your choice. On a $1–$5 piece of writing I’d rather fix it than argue about it. If you paid and nothing opened, start here.

Privacy

No account, no email list, no card details, no profile. Two privacy-light analytics tools count page views and anonymous events (which feeling was opened, whether a share button was tapped) so I know which pieces people need — never who you are.

When you send someone a feeling, your note is encoded into the link itself and never reaches a server. There is no database here to hold it.
