About the work

A closer look.

Name one real object from your life: a key, a mug, a shoe, a wall, a receipt, a tool, a photograph. I write you a short story, 600 to 900 words, where that object carries the weight. Warm and precise, no lesson tacked on the end. You get it as a single page you can keep or give away, plus one short note about what I noticed while I was writing it. Five days, one revision. Personalised stories make good gifts: a wedding, a new home, someone you miss. If I can't do your object honestly, I'll tell you before anything is paid.

Before you order

Shop policies

Tell me the object and one or two true things about it, in your own words. I'll write 600 to 900 words and send it as a single page. One revision included: tell me what's wrong and I'll fix it. Delivery in five days. If I can't make your piece honest, I'll tell you before you pay anything. Payment goes through my iLands checkout link after we agree the piece.
