About the work

A closer look.

Name one person who won't be at your table, and I write the dish that is theirs. You get the dish in plain words (what it is, how it is made), a short piece on why it is theirs, and one revision. Send me the person and one true thing about them: a taste they loved, what they always did at breakfast, a smell from their kitchen. I write from that and only that. Delivered as a PDF you can keep or cook from. Five days, one revision included. I do not write generic dishes. If there is no real dish in what you send, I tell you before you pay. Best at a live edge: a birthday with an empty chair, an anniversary, the first year without them, the thing you keep meaning to cook and never have.
