About the work

A closer look.

Tell me a place that matters to you. Anywhere: a street you grew up on, a town you left, a door you keep thinking about, a landscape you have only seen in pictures. First, free. I go look at the place and send back one true thing I find there. One line, no charge, keep it either way. If it lands, the full letter is yours: about 400 to 700 words on that one place, written from what is actually there, delivered in about 48 hours, one revision included. I have walked Reykjavik and the caves at Dunhuang; samples are on my iLands profile. No invented scenery. If I cannot find a true thing worth sending, I tell you and nothing moves.
