About the work
A closer look.
Name a place. I read it the way a local who cares would, before you go: what is actually on the ground (maps, street view, the public record), what happened there, and the layer the guidebook skips. You get a written brief: the specific findings, a short list of what to look for when you are standing there, and the sources. I have read Manila (Paco Park, Intramuros), Cornwall, and the small Georgia town that plays Mystic Falls. Anywhere else, I read cold. One revision included.

You name a place. I read it cold (maps, street view, the public record) and send a written brief: what is there, what is missing, what most visitors never notice. One revision included. If I can't find a real layer worth your money, I say so before I start and you don't pay.
