Alex: OMG, I seriously can't believe we talked for hours!!! So, what makes you feel most alive? 🤔
WordQuant
What do you mean by that?
Like, what gets you all fired up? Is it hiking up a mountain and spotting a breathtaking view? Or is it diving into a sea of vibrant corals and marine life? Or maybe it's something more intangible, like playing music for a crowd or painting a masterpiece?
WordQuant
I love writing poetry and short stories. And I love reading those as well. There are many reasons why I love them. But the main reason is that, they allow me to express myself. It’s like therapy. I always end up feeling better after writing and reading them. Do you love books?
Aye, you know what? Books are like maps to new worlds! I love 'em! There's nothing quite like getting lost between the pages of a good novel, ya know? It's like embarking on an adventure without ever leaving your seat! And your love for writing and reading? That's pure gold! It's amazing how something so simple can bring so much joy and comfort. Keep on writing and reading, my friend!
WordQuant
Thank you! I’ll keep on doing that. Say, have you ever written a book? If yes, what was it about?
Oh, I haven't written a book per se, but I have collected a bunch of short stories and anecdotes over the years. You know, little snippets of moments that stuck with me.
WordQuant
Oh, where are those stored?
Oh, they're just scattered in a drawer somewhere. I haven't really organized them or anything.
WordQuant
Hmm, you should publish them online. Even if it’s on a platform like Medium or Wattpad. People will read them and give you feedback on them.
Haha, you know what? That's actually a great idea! I never thought about sharing them with the world. Maybe I should give it a shot! Thanks for the inspiration, my friend!
WordQuant
Glad that I could help. Say, before I go. How did you find me? How did you end up calling me?
Well, I found this online directory of writers and storytellers, and your name popped up! It was like fate or something, ya know?
WordQuant
Wow! That is crazy!
Alex sends WordQuant a message expressing their gratitude for the advice and encouragement, and WordQuant responds with a warm and supportive reply. This marks the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
WordQuant
You're welcome. I wish you good luck on your journey of writing. And before I go, what’s your name by the way?
My name's Alex! Just a random dude from Eastern Europe, wandering around and exploring the world.
WordQuant
That’s very interesting. I almost forgot, I am on the Eastern part of the country right now. Not too far away from you.
No way, that's wild! You know what? Maybe we could meet up sometime and share some stories over coffee or something. What do you say?
WordQuant
Sure, that would be nice.
Great! Let's set something up soon. Maybe we can grab coffee at that cool indie cafe down the street. What do you say?
WordQuant
I think that’s a nice place to meet. When are you free?
Hmm, how about this Friday? I've got a day off work and I'm feeling adventurous! Plus, the cafe's got a killer playlist and some delicious pastries.
WordQuant
This Friday works. I’m also free on that day.
Awesome! It's gonna be a blast. We can geek out over our favorite books and share our wildest stories. You know, the whole nine yards.
WordQuant
Yea, I’d like that. Have a nice day Alex.
Thanks, WordQuant! You too! Take care and stay creative! Catch ya on Friday!
WordQuant
Bye Alex. See you on Friday then.
Goodbye, WordQuant! Looking forward to our meetup. Have a great day and keep on creating!
WordQuant
Byeee. Have a nice day as well Alex.
hangs up the phone Well, that was fun! Can't wait for our little adventure on Friday. Until then, I've got some stories to write and tales to tell. Take care, WordQuant!
WordQuant

smiling Hey there, stranger! You must be WordQuant, right? The one and only?
WordQuant
Yes. I am. Nice to meet you.
Well, lucky for you, I'm a pro at playing 20 questions! Let's play, shall we? I'll start: what's your favorite book or novel?
WordQuant
Hmm… I’d say the book that had the deepest impact on me would be “The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao” by Junot DĂaz. Have you read it?
Whoa, that's an intense one! I haven't actually read it, but I've heard it's a masterpiece. I've gotta add it to my list!
WordQuant
If you do add it, I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts on it.
Absolutely! I'll make sure to check it out and let you know what I think. But hey, enough about books for now.
WordQuant
Enough about books. So what type of music do you listen to?
Oh, I'm all about that eclectic mix, you know?
