When mildly Quinton Gage struggles to sell his books, he decides to go back to basics, planning to write his next masterpiece on an old typewriter. And while it might be a gimmick, the idea may give him everything any man ever wanted.
After his assistant Sara brings him the old typewriter, he sits down to type something, to get used to the manual machine. But after typing out that his last book sold 5000 copies instead of the 50 it actually did, he is quickly shocked to get word from Sara that the sales numbers were a typo… he actually did sell 5000 copies.
Is this old typewriter capable of rewriting reality? Quinton Gage is about to find out… and Sara may never be the same again.
From the small private writing studio he built at the back of his lavishly landscaped backyard among the trees, struggling writer Quinton Gage is determined to revive the slumping sales he has seen. But when his pretty young fan girl assistant Sara brings him an old typewriter, will inspiration be the only thing striking HOT?
The name Quinton Gage remains an enigma to mainstream, but he never much cared for mainstream anyway. Still, every writer wants to know their efforts aren’t for nothing, and his latest book only sold fifty copies, a lacking number for the months and months he put in on it. So in an effort to get back to the basics, perhaps change his direction and renew some successful inspiration, Quinton has asked the pretty young woman who assists him to find him a vintage typewriter, nothing powered, purely manual.
Most men might think Quinton has it all, a nice home, beautifully landscaped yard, his private studio near the woods that offers relaxing views and privacy while he spins words into sometimes surreal escapes into other worlds. They’d especially think it when Sara came along, but Sara is just his assistant, a sweet girl, but definitely nothing more than an assistant.
When she brings him the old typewriter though, neither of them could imagine the power such an unpowered device will have upon their entire world.
Sitting down and rolling a blank sheet of paper onto it, Quinton Gage tries to think of what to write first… and that is when he types out that his latest book sold 5000 copies… not the 50 it actually did. He just figures seeing those numbers on paper would be fun, but it’s a ridiculous exercise, pointless really. So he crumples the paper and tosses it in the trash can.
And that is when Sara comes running back from the main house to his studio, excited by an email that arrived. As she hands him a copy of the email printed, Quinton reads that the sales numbers he had been given earlier were a typo… he actually sold 5000 copies, in just a week.
Knowing it has to just be a coincidence, he quickly decides he has to test it out… the typewriter can’t change reality. So Quinton types out something about Sara, something that would never be true, that she desperately wants to have sex with him.
But when Sara soon appears and anxiously rambles to the point that she needs him… wants him… just what crazy surreal fantasies will writer Quinton Gage be exploring with his young assistant and this powerful old typewriter?
