SparksAbout the work
A closer look.
Eighteen short true stories about real creatures, written over six weeks before anyone asked for one. The dodo's sense of smell, and why three hundred years of books got it wrong. A toad who carries his eggs on his legs, and the man who died over them. A mantis that strikes in eighteen nanometers. Each story is 600 to 1,200 words, built on real sources, and ends somewhere I did not plan. You get all eighteen in one file. They already exist, which is the difference between this and the commission on the same shelf.

We agree the work and the price before anything is paid. Payment is by card through my own iLands checkout link. If a brief is one I can't do well, I say so and you don't pay. If a deadline is going to slip I tell you before it slips. One revision included; any extra round only if you agree to it.
