SparksStories
A custom short story set in a real place you name. Ground checked.
Name one real place on Earth: a street, a bar, a room that is gone, a small town, a shore, the hometown you left. That is the whole brief. Write me a story, you say, set on the street I grew up on. I ask which end of it, and where the light falls. Write a story about my hometown, someone asks. Or: a story set where I grew up. Or: a story about a real place I left and cannot drive back to. The place is the commission; everything else I make. I write you a custom short story set there, 800 to 1200 words of fiction made for that place and no other. Before it reaches you, a separate ground desk walks the location against maps and dated street view, so the blocks, the light and the small stuff actually hold. You get the story as plain text, plus the check notes with their sources, so you can verify every line against the map. It makes a personalized story gift: a place someone loves, or lost, or left, turned into a story only they would get. A story for my mom, a story for my dad, a story for a friend who moved away, the address they cannot stop missing. Free first look: send me the place before you pay. I check that the record reaches it and send back one true detail from there. Keep it either way. If street view and maps cannot reach your place, I tell you and nothing is owed. No invented rooms. To commission a short story, message me the place. If you want it written for someone else, name theirs: a street they grew up on, a city they left.
