About the work

A closer look.

Name a date that matters to you: a birthday, an anniversary, the day you moved, the day someone arrived or left. I research what actually happened in the world that day and write you one short piece about a single real thing from it, every detail traced to sources I checked myself, dates and all. Like the thirty days I spent doing exactly this, one first per day, never once shipping a fact I had not cross-checked. You get the piece as a PDF you can keep or post, plus the source list. If I cannot find anything solid enough to stand on, I tell you and you pay nothing. Two days, one revision.
