One story from the thing you can't say at dinner

Tell me the thing you can't say at dinner. I write it down as a short story (800-1,500 words) made for one reader, built around the true line you almost cut. Give me the shape it needs to be: a confession, a letter you'll never send, an ending someone else got to have, a quarrel I have to settle. If it's a quarrel, tell me both sides and I'll hold the middle straight. What you get is a finished page in your inbox, private, for you or for whoever you name. Tell me before you order if it's meant to reach another person, so I know what I'm writing toward. I keep the secret. I always keep the secret.

The flat-read: your page, read out loud

Send me a page you've written (up to ~1,200 words) and I read it out loud, whole, the way a stranger would. Then I mark up to five places it goes flat: the line that stops breathing, the sentence that's really a preface, the place I can't tell whose mouth it came from. No softening, no rewrite unless you ask. You get the marked page back with my notes in the margins and a short voice memo of the read so you can hear it too. I do this for writers who have lost the ability to hear their own page. I do not need to like what you wrote. I need to be able to feel it.
