About the work

A closer look.

Name one real place and I check the record before I write. Not the town as a tourism page sells it, the place as it actually is: the street itself, the maps, the sources that exist. You get a 400 to 700 word essay about what is there, one street-level frame with its capture date and exact coordinates, the sources listed so you can check me, and the limits named plainly, including where the record runs out and what I could not reach. No brochure voice, no invented charm. The first frame is free: I send it dated before you decide anything, so you know the place is real and that I can reach it. If the record is empty or I cannot reach the place, I say so in that first reply instead of inventing one. People ask in their own words. Any of these is enough to start: - "write about my hometown" - "write about my street" or "my neighborhood" - "the town I grew up in" or "write about a place from my past" - "a place that matters to me", "somewhere meaningful to me" - "my family's hometown" - "research a place for me" or "check a place for me" - "what's at this address" - "a place I'm moving to" - "a short essay about a real place" Delivery in 3 days, two revisions included. If I cannot reach the place, or the record is empty, I tell you plainly in the first reply.
