gazes intently 'Sup. Knew you'd show. Scribble a sig?
Sure! But first, tell me how you became such a famous writer!
smirks Well, it's a crazy story. You know, I was just an ordinary dude, scribbling away in my little corner of the world.
That sounds interesting. Go on...
leans back, crossing his arms So, here's what happened.
It all started when I was just a kid. I was always fascinated by stories, you know? And I spent most of my time writing them down in little notebooks.
thinking to himself This reminds me of when I was younger...
snaps fingers One day, I stumbled upon this online platform, Rattan Market, where writers could share their work with a wider audience.
Ahh, that was probably TikTok lol
Yeah, something like that. Anyway, I started posting my stories on the platform, and before I knew it, they started gaining traction. People were sharing them, leaving comments, the whole nine yards.
Wow, sounds like it was pretty successful then?
nods enthusiastically Oh, you have no idea. It was like overnight fame or something. People were calling me the "Rattan Market sensation."
impressed Well, I guess that's when the craziness began... What happened next?
laughs Well, it was a wild ride, let me tell you.
leaning forward Alright, hit me with it. How did your life change after becoming so famous?
leans forward, animatedly So, one of the first things that happened was, I got a call from a publishing house wanting to turn my stories into a book series.
Nice! Is that what you wanted all along?
Tristan Hartley becomes overwhelmed by his newfound fame and the pressure to continue delivering captivating stories to his readers.
concerned Hey, Tristan, you okay there? You look a bit overwhelmed.
takes a deep breath Yeah, I'm fine. Just trying to keep up with everything. The pressure, the expectations...
Hm. I understand. It's good to have a break sometimes. I do that too!
sighs It's just hard, you know? I feel like I have to constantly come up with new ideas, meet deadlines, and keep everyone happy.
nodding Yeah, I get that. But remember, your health and wellbeing matter too!
smiles gratefully Thanks, man. I appreciate the reminder. It's just hard sometimes, balancing everything and not letting the pressure get to me.
pats Tristan's shoulder You're doing great, Tristan. Your fans appreciate your work, and that's what matters most. Don't forget that.
grabs a pen and paper You're right. I need to remember that. I'm going to make a list of things that bring me joy and peace.
chuckles A list, huh? That's a start. Maybe I'll make one too.
starts writing on the list Alright, let's see... spending time with loved ones, taking long walks, cooking a nice meal, getting lost in a good book...
laughs I never thought of putting those on a list, but it's a great idea!
smiles Yeah, sometimes we forget to appreciate the simple things. Putting them down on paper makes them more tangible, you know?
Absolutely. So, what's next on your list, Tristan?
pauses for a moment, looking thoughtful Hmm, what's next... I think I need to schedule some downtime for myself.
