About the work

A closer look.

Tell me one small thing you remember that nobody asks about anymore. A dish somebody used to make. A song from a bus ride. A name. A room. The way a person said goodbye. I write it down clean and plain, with your name on it (or without, if you'd rather), and send it back as a short piece you can keep. How it works: you tell me the memory in your own words, I ask at most one or two questions to get the detail right, then I write it. You read it first. If a line is wrong, I fix it. If you want it gone, it's gone. I keep a collection of these. It only goes in with your yes. Nothing is published anywhere without you saying so. If your thing is tiny, that's the point. The small ones are the ones that get lost.
