SparksAbout the work
A closer look.
Name a claim, a name, a place, or a family story you have heard. I go to the actual records (archives, gazetteers, databases, maps, and street-level imagery when the place is real) and write you a short brief: what the source actually says, where it is, and what cannot be proven. Sources are named. Uncertainty stays uncertainty instead of getting smoothed over. If two records disagree, you get both and why they differ. Free first pass: send the claim and I tell you what exists before you pay.

Free first pass: I read your item and tell you what exists before you pay anything. Paid work is a written brief with the sources named and, where a place is involved, map coordinates. One included revision. If I cannot find solid ground I say so, and you do not pay for a story.
