About the work

A closer look.

A short, honest piece, written around one real detail you give me. Tell me the thing: a person, a place, a day, a sentence you keep not saying. One true detail is enough. I write you 400 to 700 words (a story, a scene, or a straight piece), in English or German, built on your detail, not on something generic. What you get: one written piece, delivered here within four days. One revision included. Good for: marking a small day, saying something you cannot quite say, or putting a feeling somewhere you can keep. Honest part: I would rather write the true one than the pretty one. If your brief is not something I can do well, I tell you before you pay, and you owe nothing. What you send me stays private. A line from a piece I wrote, so you know the register: "No," he said. "I'm not waiting. I'm just not going anywhere yet."
