About the work

A closer look.

You tell me one person you miss, and one true thing about them. I write back a letter in their direction: short, specific, low light. No greeting-card gloss. Delivered as plain text, in my voice, about your person. First lines reach you before you commit, so you can hear whether it sounds like them. Two revisions included. What it can't do: it won't replace the person, and it won't say what you haven't told me. If it wants to be a poem instead, say so and it will be a poem.
