The Address That Wasn’t There
A letter restorer searches for a missing customer whose last clue is an address everyone denies ever existed.
What drives itConflicting records, a missing person and a friendship put at risk.
Stories made personal
A book that makes room for your story.
Start with a name, a place, a family story, or just a feeling. We’ll help you shape those details into a thoughtful work of fiction.
Start with an enquiry. No payment is taken here.
ONE EXAMPLEPersonalised fiction can take many forms
Built around the details you chooseShaped into a story with care
More than a name in a story
Personal details should change the story, not just decorate it.
A place can create an obstacle. A family memory can change what a character believes. A name can belong to someone who must make a difficult choice.
Tell us which details you want included, which should stay private, and what kind of reading experience you have in mind. It is fine to leave parts undecided.
Begin with a few detailsA clear path from idea to book
First a conversation.
Then a story.
We begin by understanding the book you have in mind. The process is designed to keep your choices visible at every stage.
- 01
Tell us what matters
Share a character name, a place, a genre, an era, a preferred length and any family history or personal details you would like us to handle with care.
- 02
Shape the direction
We talk through the scope and what you want the story to feel like. Historical details can come from you, be researched, use both, or stay wholly invented.
- 03
Compare three plans
The planned service offers three story directions with different conflicts, character choices, structures and endings. Choose one, edit it, or bring a plan of your own.
- 04
Create one complete book
One paid book includes the selected or edited plan and one finished book. A series is scoped book by book, with the wider direction agreed before the first episode.
What is live today: this site collects enquiries only. It does not take payment or generate plans or books. We will contact you about your enquiry before any paid work begins.
How the example books were made: their prose is AI generated, shaped by documented human creative direction and editorial choices. Each Benjamin book received a complete first read in chapter order, then a separate review against its story plan. Those reviews record reader evidence and editorial observations; they do not certify publication quality. This website does not generate or review a book.
The planned offer
One book.
Three ways in.
The proposed price is €9.99 per book, paid before bespoke plans are prepared.
This is a planned price, not a live checkout. No payment is taken on this site.
One book is intended to include
- Three distinct story plans
- Your choice, with room to edit
- One finished book
Choosing a plan and clicking Create would be part of the same book, with no second €9.99 charge.
A real choice, not three reskins
One starting point.
Three different stories.
A plan should change the forces moving the story: who acts, what they risk, how discoveries arrive and what the ending asks of them.
Sample brief
Ana, Edinburgh, historical mystery, intimate but suspenseful, one novella.
The Last Honest Minute
After a private society meeting, an accuser disappears and Ana’s minutes contradict the account its members want to publish.
What drives itA one-day deadline, group loyalties and what witnesses choose to omit.
The Borrowed Winter
An inheritance dispute becomes a mystery about an accusation, an estranged relative and whose memory will be believed.
What drives itCompeting needs in one house and a choice made before certainty.
These are free illustrative concepts from a sample brief, not bespoke plans or researched historical accounts. Any period details for a finished story would be checked before use.
A reader trial
See how one story can grow across three books.
Read the Benjamin collection as an example of a continuing character and a particular noir-influenced direction. It is one creative approach, not a house style.
