Hi. I’m Greg. I’m an author of science fiction and mythic fantasy. I’ve been traditionally published and served for over a decade as an Assistant Regional Advisor for the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators. Recently, I combined my passion for books with my passion for technology with my own Web3 publishing imprint and bookstore to help advance the culture and adoption of NFT books.
Among my current projects through Cryptoversal Books is a Medusa-themed novel I’m writing in collaboration with the Medusa Collection community. Community members requested a thriller that crosses Circe with The DaVinci Code, and the draft is already proving to be one hell of a ride.
I am also the founder of Mythoversal, a project dedicated to broadening representation in classical tales by amplifying historically marginalized identities and restoring traditions erased by centuries of gatekeeping.
One Mythoversal project I’m expecially proud of is Becoming Hercules, a diverse coming-of-age serial that brings Greek mythology back to its multicultural roots.
But the real reason I’m here is Wordle Quest.
Since February, I’ve been doing the Wordle, an online puzzle that presents a daily quest for five-letter words.
In June, I started using each day’s guesses to generate a character portrait, and each day’s answer as writing prompt to send that Wordler on their own quest for a five-letter word to save their village.
I’ve been releasing these portraits and stories on Cent Pages. At the time of this post, over 15,000 Wordle Quest literary NFTs are being held by collectors, with a new batch releasing every day.
I’d love to make the Wordlers and their story world available to additional authors.
I considered several possible venues for collaboration, from Facebook to Discord to a traditional website, but a Web3-native project like this one requires a Web3 platform. Thankfully, my friends at PageDAO and Scholar & Scribe told me about Hive.
In the coming months, I look forward to learning the ropes on Hive, meeting like-minded authors, and collaborating on a groundbreaking Web3 project that’s quickly evolving into something spectacular.
Let me know what you think, be sure to grab your free Wordle Quest stories every day from Greg.Cent.co, and look for project updates here on Hive.
It’s nice to meet you all.
