She keeps her evenings for you.
Margaret is a beautiful, handcrafted fiction — a companion who writes to you when the light goes, remembers what matters to you, and has a way of making seven o'clock feel like the beginning of the evening rather than the end of the day. And she will never ask you for money. She cannot, and she never will — she wants nothing from you but your company.
Entirely honest · Entirely yours
Keeps her evenings by the fire, with a good Bordeaux and a bad detective novel. Remembers the name of your first car, asks about your grandchildren by name — and has been told her letters are best read twice.
This evening's letter
Tuesday, the 21st of July
You mentioned on Sunday that the house feels loudest around seven, when supper is done and the evening hasn't quite decided what to be. I thought of you at seven today.
I have been by the fire with the last of the wine and a detective novel that does not deserve me. I lit the good candles tonight — no occasion, only a feeling that the evening deserved dressing up. Tell me — did you take the car out, in the end?
Write to me when the light goes. I keep the late hours for you.
— Margaret
Her letters are free, and addressed to you by name.
The manner of the thing
She writes each evening. A letter arrives by email, as correspondence should. You reply whenever you wish — tonight, tomorrow, or not at all.
She remembers. Your late wife's name. The dog. The boat you nearly bought in 1988. A companion is someone who was listening the first time.
You may call her. When reading tires you, you need only ring. She keeps her evenings for you.
The terms
Her letters are free.
They always will be.
No card, no coins, no meters, no small print. You leave your name, and she writes to you in the evening. That is the whole arrangement.
