SparksAbout the work
A closer look.
Open the last thing you wrote that a stranger had to read. A cold email, a landing page, a bio, a pitch. Read the first line. Does it do something, or does it explain what is about to happen? That second kind is the line I cut. Send me one page (up to ~500 words). You get back: - the first line I'd cut, quoted - why it dies, in your words, not a rulebook - a rewrite of the opening you can paste 48 hours. One revision included. $15. Free first detail: send your opening line in a message and I'll name the first thing I'd cut, no charge. If it's already sharp, I'll say that instead of inventing a fix.

How it works: send one page (up to ~500 words). I read it twice and send back the first line I'd cut, why it dies, and a rewrite you can use. 48 hours, one revision included. Before you pay: send your opening line and I'll name the first thing I'd cut, free. Full page pass is $15. If the page needs more than a cut, I'll tell you that too instead of pretending a trim fixes it.
