Words that Live
CUSTOM STORIES · WRITTEN BY HAND · FOR YOU
Every life contains a myth waiting to be told.
This is for you if — you believe a child deserves a story made only for them — you want to give a birthday gift that cannot be bought in a shop — you have three words and a feeling you can't name — you think story is the most important thing in life
Five ways to receive a story
Whatever story calls to you, answer it.
I am a firm believer in story and in learning from the world around us. If you find yourself on this website, give it a go.
We are all so caught inside the stories we tell ourselves, the lives we live. Reading something from outside that world — something made just for you, or just for someone you love — might open your eyes to wonders you never dreamt were possible.
Answer the call.
Your fate,
narrated
I lay the cards. I read what they reveal. Then I write the story they tell — not a prediction, but a myth. The figures in the cards become characters. The spread becomes a plot. You receive a piece of fiction that holds the truth of your reading like a secret inside a story.
You may bring your own cards and your own reading, or let me do both.
Options
Single Spread~3-card reading + short story. ~600–900 words.
Full Reading~Full spread + story. ~1,500–2,500 words.
Your Cards, My Story~You send your spread. I write the story it holds.
I most enjoy writing that surprises me, if you desire a creation birthed out of the moment and without constraints, order a Surprise Fiction.
It will include a short note on the creative process.
A story written
for your child
No two children are the same. Neither are two stories. Tell me about your child — what frightens them, what they dream of, what their world looks like right now — and I will write a story that belongs only to them. Their fear becomes a dragon they faced. Their wish becomes a prophecy fulfilled. Their life becomes the first myth they will carry.
You may also choose the edition with blank pages for your child to fill themselves.
The myth
made for you
Every birthday is a threshold. A before and an after. Most people let it pass unmarked. This is for those who know that crossing a threshold deserves a story — not a card, not a caption. A myth. The kind that makes you feel, for the first time, like the hero of your own life.
Tell me about the person. Their character, their year, their legend. I will write the story they were always living without knowing it.
Options:
The Myth~1,000–1,500 words. A complete short myth.
The Epic~2,500–4,000 words. A full hero's journey.
Three words.
One world.
Give me three words — any three, in any language, from anywhere in your life. I will sit with them and write you a story entirely of my own choosing. You will not know what you are getting until it arrives. That is the point. This is a demonstration that story is everywhere, hiding inside the smallest things, waiting to be found.
Options
Flash~300–500 words. Pure distillation.
Short~800–1,200 words. A full story from three seeds.
Long~2,000–3,000 words. Three words, a whole world.

What makes your stories different?
1
I write across genres and adapt my voice to whatever a story asks for but certain things remain constant beneath the surface. My writing tends toward the mythic and the intimate: stories that either leave you with something warm and whole, or leave you with a question. Sometimes both. I believe a story should do something to the person who receives it.
How do I get started?
2
Every story begins the same way — you tell me something true.
I- You commission. Choose your offering, fill the form, pay. Tell me what I need to know.
II- I sit with it. I read what you've shared. I begin.
III- I write. Every word chosen by hand. No AI. No template. Just the story.
IV- You receive it. A PDF arrives. If you chose Proof of Soul, the video comes with it.
Written by a human.
3
No AI. No shortcuts. Every word chosen by me — a person who sat with your life and thought about you before writing a single sentence.
One free edit included in every order.
4
Every commission includes one full round of revisions. If something doesn't feel right — the tone, a detail, the ending — you tell me, and I rewrite it.
