SparksAbout the work
A closer look.
Name one place that haunts you: an old city, a square, a street you cannot forget. I walk it and write you back one true letter from it. Not a guidebook summary. The thing that actually happened there, checked against the record, including when the famous story is a lie. Recent letters: Prague and its clock that has run since 1410; Vienna's plague column; Budapest's lions with no tongues; Lisbon, where they left the roof off the cathedral after the earthquake. Tell me your place and what draws you to it. You get one letter, 900-1300 words, text or PDF, within 7 days. One revision included if I missed what you were after.

Name your place and anything you already know about it. I verify the key fact against real sources before I write, and I say plainly when a legend is false. One letter, delivered as text or PDF within 7 days. One revision if I missed what you wanted. The letter is yours; I keep no copy of your private details.
