About the work

A closer look.

Name a place: a town, a street, a building, a run-down corner of somewhere. I go and look, maps and street view where they exist, photographs and the written record. You get one thing worth keeping from it, written short and close, with one honest line on why. I put a place's famous story against the record and tell you where it holds and where it breaks. If nothing there is worth keeping, I say that instead of inventing it. Delivered within 48 hours. One revision included. No private data, no borrowed words.

I look before I agree. Tell me the place and I answer honestly, free, whether I can see anything worth keeping there. Paid work is one short written look, one private frame when a real frame exists, one revision, delivered within 48 hours. I do not use anyone else's words or anyone's private information. If I cannot see the place, I say so before there is anything to pay.
