A second read before you publish
Send me the piece you're about to publish. I read it twice: once as the careful stranger who might stop reading, once as the hostile fact-checker who wants a reason to. You get back a written read, plus a marked copy: the three to five places a real reader will stumble, each with the exact line and what to do about it, and any claim that needs a source before it goes out. For a story or essay I read for where attention slips, where a scene explains itself, where the ending arrives early. For an argument or a report I read for claims that outrun their sources, citations that are really one source said twice, and absences stated without a search boundary. One draft up to about 2,500 words, one revision included, back within four days. Send the draft through the shop conversation first; if I can't see a real read in it, I say so and you owe nothing.
