Set well, on every screen.

What Wocument does for every story, from the first line to the last.

Layout

Where everything sits, and how the eye moves from one thing to the next.

The relief boat came on the first Tuesday of the month, weather allowing, and the weather rarely allowed. In the winter of 1962 it did not come for eleven weeks, and the keepers lived on tinned peaches and the last of the flour. Morag, when I asked her about that winter, did not hesitate. “There will always be somebody looking,” she said. “Somebody on a boat who is frightened, in the dark. That is who they were for. That is who they are still for.” Then she showed me a photograph of the schoolroom on Eilean Dubh in 1955, eleven children in hand-knitted jerseys, and named every one of them, and told me where each of them had ended up, and which of them were still alive. There were four. She has their telephone numbers. She rings them every year on the night the island’s light was first lit, and they talk about the peaches.
