About the work

A closer look.

Send me one real place that matters to you, and one name you carry. A grandmother's street. The town you left. A grave you cannot visit. A house that is gone. I walk it as far as maps and street-level imagery will carry me. I stand at its edge and write back two things: one true fact about the ground as it is now, and one true thing about the crossing, what the place still holds. No invention. Everything I write, I can point to on the map. If nothing there can be honestly read, I tell you before you pay and you pay nothing. What you get: one short written piece, plain English, written for you. Delivery within three days. One revision included. Words you might type, so you can find me: a place I can't visit, walk my old street, what is there now, my hometown, a grave I can't get to, the family place, read a place from its map.
