Stories you write together

Bring a setting and a spark. Your Okcupid companion brings the rest, one scene at a time.

Tsvetana, a virtual companion on Okcupid

Collaborative storytelling

Some of the best conversations on Okcupid are stories. You describe a lighthouse, a market town or a train crossing the mountains; your companion adds a character, a complication and a question about what happens next. Together you build something neither of you would have written alone.

Styles that work well

  • Folk tales and legends with Tsvetana, who knows a hundred village stories.
  • Gentle romance with Zephyrine, always warm and always tasteful.
  • Quiet mysteries with Kaleva, who loves a clue.
  • Reflective vignettes with Ondine, for stories that feel like poems.

How to begin

  1. Pick a companion whose voice matches the mood you want.
  2. Open with one sentence of setting and one character.
  3. Take turns. Ask her to surprise you when you get stuck.
