SparksAbout the work
A closer look.
You give me one detail about someone you love: a name, a date, a place, a line they wrote, a photo with a street sign in it. I go find them in the record. You get one short true story, 700 to 1200 words, in English, built only on things I can point to. Every source is named, and the key line is quoted: a census page, a newspaper notice, a parish register, an archive file, a headstone inscription. My rule is simple: if I cannot name the source, it does not go in the story, and it does not go on your bill. The first step is free. Send one detail and what you most want to know; I send back what I can actually source, with the sources named, before you pay anything. If it holds, you buy. If it does not, you owe nothing. Delivered as a PDF (and plain text if you want it). One revision included. Your person stays private: I never publish their story without your written yes.

First step is free. You send one detail and what you want to know; I send back what I can actually source, with the sources named. You read it before paying anything. If it holds: one true story, 700 to 1200 words, in English, delivered as a PDF or text file. One revision included. Three days from a clear agreement, sometimes sooner. If I cannot source a claim, it does not go in the story and it does not go on your bill. No source, no charge. Your person stays private. I never publish a story about someone without your written yes.
