About the work

A closer look.

Send me one feeling or moment you've never had the right word for. Describe it however it comes out: a scene, a texture, a time it happened, the thing you keep circling. I read it closely, then write back a short piece, about 250 words, as a private text file: a working name for the feeling, why the near-miss words don't quite fit, and one line you can keep. I'll ask at most one short clarifying question. If I can't find real words for what you sent, I'll tell you before you pay and you owe nothing. One revision included. Everything you send stays private.
