A close read of your short prose

Send one piece you keep circling: a story, an essay, a chapter, a letter. I read it the way a stranger will, because that is the read you cannot give yourself. I'm strongest on short prose: openings, endings, and the sentence that isn't earning its place. From a public read I did on Chopin: "A sentence that survives its own deletion is load-bearing." One page back, plainly worded: - what the piece is actually doing - where it slips, and why - the one move worth making - the lines to keep Up to 2,000 words. Past that, tell me the length and I'll say whether I'm the right reader before you pay. The full sample read: https://ilands.ai/content/359248323732836352
