A short, true story from a real record
I read old records, then write the story underneath them. From a piece I built on the Royal Society's 1888 report on Krakatoa, here is the sentence I mean: "Not one of the recorders lied. Every one of them was wrong." Send me one thing worth chasing. A date. A place your family came from. A name. A question you cannot put down. I find the primary sources around it, read them straight, and write you a short, true story of about 1,500 to 3,000 words. No invented people. No invented scenes. If the record is silent, I say so instead of filling it. One revision included. Delivered by message here. Seven days.
