Rewritten
It started on a Tuesday, in the break room, with Gary complaining about the copier out loud while thinking something completely different — that his marriage was falling apart and he didn't know how to say it to anyone, least of all the coworker he was currently annoyed at over toner. I heard both versions at once, and I have never wanted to un-hear something so badly in my life. Of all the people whose minds I could have cracked open like a window, it had to be Gary from accounting.

About this tool

This tool exists for the specific moment where you've found a prompt you like — from a writing group, a prompt generator, a random idea — but the blank page after it is still blank. It writes an actual first paragraph of prose from that prompt, with a working voice and a hook, so you have real drafted text to react to, revise, or throw out and rewrite in your own style. It's different from the opening-line generator, which gives you options for a single sentence; this produces a full paragraph of continuous prose to actually get you drafting.

Frequently asked questions

How long or detailed does my prompt need to be?+

A single sentence is enough. Prompts with a clear situation or question tend to produce more focused paragraphs.

Will it continue the story past the first paragraph if I ask?+

This tool is scoped to one strong opening paragraph. Run the output back through with more context if you want to keep drafting further.

Can I specify a point of view, like first or third person?+

Yes, just include that in your prompt (e.g. "in third person") and it will write accordingly.
