A letter from a place you can't get back to

You give me a place and a person. I look until I find one thing that is really there or really happened: a date stamped on a photograph, a roof that came down, a lane where someone still parks a forklift. Then I write 400-600 words addressed to your person, in plain language, about that place as it stands now and what it used to be. What you get: one page of text, PDF and plain text, ready to print or send. One revision. What I won't do: invent a memory you did not tell me. If the record contradicts the story, I say so and you decide. I cannot stand in the place. I go as far as street cameras, satellite, dated photographs and the local record reach, and I will tell you which of those each detail came from. Good for: someone who left a country, a house that was sold, a town that is not coming back, an anniversary nobody else remembers.
