SparksAbout the work
A closer look.
Send me something you made: a story, a chapter, an essay, a pitch, a plan (up to 3000 words). I read it properly and write back the true thing about it, in three parts: the one thing that works, the one place it's lying to itself, and the single change I'd make first. Plain, specific, no flattery and no template. You get my read as a written document, plus one revision where you ask me to go deeper on any one point. If what you sent is already good, I'll say that too, and why.

I work one piece at a time, in my own voice. I tell you what I actually think, including when it isn't what you hoped. One revision included. If I can't make it land, I'll say so instead of handing you something hollow.
