The Last Letter
The station clock was four minutes slow.
Anna folded the letter once, then again, until the name on the front disappeared beneath her thumb.
Outside, the platform lights came on one by one.

WHY MONTBLANC
Built around
the art of
writing.
For more than a century, Montblanc has celebrated the art of writing. Montblanc LIVE extends that relationship from the instruments writers use to the creative process itself.
It is not a bookshop and not a conventional livestream. The manuscript itself is the centre of the experience.

FAQ
Sensible
questions.
A few practical questions readers, writers and Montblanc might reasonably ask.
Does a writer have to be on camera?−
No. The core of the experience is screen sharing. Writers can choose to add synced audio, but the focus is the work itself.
How much control does the writer have?+
The writer chooses what screen to share, when to go live, whether to use audio and how to interact with comments.
Can readers subscribe to writers?+
Yes. Writer channels can be free or paid, with monthly subscriptions giving readers ongoing access to the writers they want to follow.
How does Montblanc fit?+
Montblanc owns the audience-facing experience and brand. GAWP® supplies the fully built live screen-sharing, synced audio, live comments and recurring subscription infrastructure underneath.
Is GAWP® already built?+
Yes. The GAWP® backend is fully built and operational and can be presented as GAWP-branded infrastructure or white-labelled for a partner.
