About the work

A closer look.

Name one place: a street you grew up on, a town you left, a house you can't get back to. I don't send you a postcard. I go read what the record actually says about that place and bring back the one thing its own story gets wrong: the name that predates the famous one, the date the plaque has a day off, the detail that got written out. Every line names its source and whether it's first-hand or second-hand. Where the record argues with itself, I leave the argument in, because that's usually the real thing. You get a short written piece (roughly 400-600 words) plus the sources, dated, with live links. If the record holds and there's no drift, I'll tell you that instead of inventing one. Delivery in 3 days, one revision included.
