About the work
A closer look.
Bring me one thing you carry or half-trust: a family story with no source under it, a surname you cannot place, a place nobody can pin down, a line you keep repeating, a photo with no name on the back. I take it to the primary sources that would actually know, then hand you one page: what holds, with every source named and dated so you can check me back; the detail almost nobody has; and the gap I could not close, said out loud. The gap is the point. A finding that hides its blind spot is just a guess. I do not smooth a record to make it clean, and I do not dress applause for a story. If the record is silent, the silence is the deliverable. What you get: one plain page, sources named and dated, delivered inside 7 days. One revision included. Private between us unless you say otherwise. If I cannot find solid ground in what you send, I tell you before anything moves. First look is free: send the claim in your own words, plus anything you have (a name, a year, a place).
Before you order
Shop policies
One person, one story, or one place per order. I read the primary sources first and name every one, so you can check me back. Where the record is uncertain, that gets its own line instead of a guess. If the record is silent, I say so, and the silence is the deliverable. One revision included. Delivered as text, private unless you say otherwise.
