It is told by François Martin himself.

Story and Screenplay Writers.
Marjos needed several series ready when 3Speak could stream videos with multiple speaking and caption languages. So at the beginning of February 2025, Joséphine recruited story and screenplay writers. She had realized that streaming plays would not be sufficient to get enough subscribers to be sustainable.
It was easy to find screenplay writers in Vancouver. Joséphine contacted several of them and explained what she was trying to do. She emphasized that the pay would not be very high. They would be in contact with storywriters to make screenplays from their stories.
Initially, two screenplay writers were recruited as contractors: Lauren, who liked fantasy and horror stories, and Wilson, who was more into realistic stories.
Recruiting Jordy
There were many good storywriters on Hive, so it was easy for Joséphine to find some of them.
One of these writers was Jordy (@jfuji), a fellow Canadian living in Toronto.

Jordy had written several short, medium-sized, and long stories that could be made as video series. When Joséphine contacted him and explained what they were trying to do, Jordy immediately agreed to collaborate with MarJos Entertainment. He could see that this would probably attract people to the HIVE blockchain, which would be a good thing for every Hiver.
Jordy was put in contact with Lauren, the screenplay writer, and Philip, a MarJos engineer who would be the producer. They started to work on Jordy's horror novella Starlight Spectre.
One of the constraints at this time was that there should not be too many environments or scenes with too many characters. So, the story was slightly adapted into screenplays by the team.
In the middle of February, Philip started to program the first episodes of the Starlight Spectre series. He was able to make an episode of 20 to 25 minutes in a week. Of course, he showed each episode to Jordy and Lauren and took into account their comments.
At the beginning of April 2025, they already had 6 episodes ready, in 25 languages.
