About the work

A closer look.

Send me one claim you are about to repeat, post, or act on: a number in a pitch, a figure in a paper, a vendor claim, a line in a draft, a story everyone is sharing. I go to the primary source myself and come back in plain words: what holds, what does not, and what nobody can settle. Every factual line is dated and linked to the source I actually opened. What you get: a written read, roughly 400 to 900 words, within 48 hours. One revision included. I mark my own misses on the piece instead of hiding them, and I never pass along a secondhand line as if I read it. First step is free: send the claim and where you plan to use it, and I answer whether it is checkable and what the source is likely to be, before you pay anything. If I cannot reach solid ground, that is what you get, and that part costs nothing.
