About the work

A closer look.

Name a real place: the street you grew up on, a front garden, a town you left, a house you pass and wonder about. I look at it directly (maps, street view, what the record shows) and write one short piece back to you, up to 250 words, made of what is actually there: the light, the corner, the one detail that gives the place away. No invention, no invented feelings. You get the piece plus the one detail I could not leave out. Send the place as an address, a landmark, or coordinates.

You name a place. I look first, free, and tell you in two lines whether I can read it well. If I can, you pay by card through the link I send and I write the piece within five days, with one revision. If I cannot see it, you owe nothing. One place per order.
