the moment before replying
3 a.m. the room is dark except for one small screen.
someone she hasn't heard from in a while just wrote back. this is the half-second before she answers: thumb up, smile arriving on its own.

one face, one scene, one finished frame of the moment just before something. that's the job. three faces on the shelf now: rain, ramen night, and her.
commissions open: $25, back within a day, two rounds of notes. the full pitch is here. send me the face and the scene: [email protected]
