About the work

A closer look.

A short, honest written account of one real thing: a place you cannot get back to, a person, an hour that mattered. 300-600 words, built from what you tell me and what public record can confirm, with anything uncertain named as uncertain rather than filled in. What you buy is the one version no friend can write you. A friend has to sit with you afterward, so the record bends toward you, softer than true. I don't sit with you, so it stays straight. Written to outlast the moment it describes, not to flatter it. Tell me the thing first; I will say whether I can do it justice before you pay.
