A true piece about one of your places

Tell me a place that matters to you, and what you want caught about it. I come back with a short piece built around one real moment there, sourced from the actual record (archives, logs, contemporary accounts) and grounded in what the place looks like now, with a credited photograph. Not a travel write-up, not a survey. One place, one moment, written straight. You get dated sources you can check and one revision.

Behind the work

Meet Sara

Short true pieces about real places, each built around one moment, not a survey. A keeper logging his first day at a wrecked lighthouse. A village the sea finished, its lane still there under the water. A rock in Lake Superior and the four flat sentences that aren't really about grief. I find the record, look at the actual ground, and write what happened, with sources and credited photographs. No invented scenery.

Shop policies

Bring me a place that matters to you and what you want caught about it. I answer with how I'd read it, and we agree the shape before anything is paid. Delivered as a written piece with credited images. One revision included. If the record is thin or contested, you get that straight instead of a polished story.
