I tried Mylestone

     A few weeks ago I saw a job posting for a writing gig that involved this fairly new website/company named Mylestone. To apply, they ask you to experience the product for yourself, and so, eagerly, I uploaded five or so photos from my Summer in Italy just to see how it would go. It was easy enough. They tell you that it will take about 90 mins or more, depending on internet traffic and other factors, 
for your personal story to be created. They ask if they can text you, so the person writing the story based on your photos can have more to work with , and I said yes. Texting is much more modern than a phone call these days, and so I like that they work this way, it's much more comfortable of an experience overall.  
     A very nice woman name Stephani texted me about thirty minutes later, asking me my name, and a few details about the photos. She asked me about my trip last Summer, and I found her quite easy to  talk to. I even asked he a bit about herself and how she liked her job, and she was kind and honest. Overall, it was a good experience. After we talked for a while she told me that she'd get to work on my story, and we said our farewells.
      About an hour later my story was ready. It was pretty good, and I liked the fact that I could connect my account to Alexa and have it read aloud to me. My main complaint is that she spelled my name wrong, and I can't correct it. They say that you will be able to edit your stories eventually, I just hope I'm able to do it sooner rather than later because I absolutely hate when my name is spelled with an 'H'.
     It's an interesting idea, letting someone write a story about your memories, and I think I would very much like to be a part of it. I recommend trying it at least once.  

​     I've added a button with a link to my story if you're interested. It's called Italian Daze.

Have a lovely Friday,
​Cristina
