About Us
Our Name!
Mustateera is an Arabic word which means wide spreading, and that’s the reason why this name was chosen for the website. The goal is to expand this work—whether it’s in English or Urdu.
In today’s world, the demand for English web novels runs higher than any other language. Even Chinese and Korean works have been translated into English for over a decade, boosting the love for those languages significantly. The same is desired for Urdu.
There are many talented writers whose work has remained in the shadows. This platform exists to encourage them to come forward. Their work can be translated here, or they may choose to do so themselves.
Why Stories?
Life isn’t always about logic and reality. Finding logic in everything can be overwhelming, because sometimes the magic of relationships doesn’t follow a particular clock—it takes its own course.
Sometimes, being a little silly… a little wild… is what helps us breathe again.
When the weight of life becomes too much, we all search for escape—something that allows us to breathe again in order to face the next battle.
Some find it in places, some in dramas…
and some of us, quietly, between the pages of a story.
When we immerse ourselves in the magical world of stories, the yearning to enter that world only grows stronger. After all, who wants to end a journey with characters we’ve grown attached to?
It’s a bittersweet feeling, but it gives us reprieve from our difficulties. And somehow, the borrowed motivation from the characters works like magic, helping us face life again with renewed energy.
Who Is This For?
For those who get lost in words,
who fall in love with worlds that aren’t their own,
who yearn to enter the book world and experience the journey alongside the characters,
who read in one sitting because leaving feels impossible—
this space is for you.
What We Offer?
MutateeraPK has been created for readers and writers alike.
A place where stories live, where emotions speak,
and where imagination becomes a refuge.
This place is for everyone—
you can write here, read here, and share your feedback.
Stories are accepted whether written in English or translated from Urdu into English. Short stories are welcome as well, as long as the language is English.
Join the Journey
Come, be a part of this journey.
Let your words find a home,
and help someone find their smile by sharing the journey of your characters with them.
