Archives & Projects

Not everything stays in the shape it was first given.

Some work arrives loud, fully formed, demanding to be seen. Other work begins as a whisper—half-typed notes, recorded voices, collaborations that outgrew their own containers, experiments that never asked to be permanent. Over time, they don’t disappear. They simply change pressure. They sink into memory, into platforms, into older versions of the internet where things still exist even when no one is actively holding them.

This space gathers those fragments.

Archives & Projects is not a graveyard and not a showcase—it is a record of motion. A place where earlier versions of work are allowed to remain visible without being forced to pretend they were ever finished. Articles written under different names and seasons. Podcasts that once carried conversations into the dark and out again. Interviews, video work, collaborations, side paths, abandoned roads that still lead somewhere if you follow them long enough.

Some of these projects are still alive, still breathing in their own quiet way. Others have closed their doors. Others simply moved somewhere else and left a light on. Together, they trace a creative life that has never stayed still long enough to be neatly categorized.

This is where they are kept—not to be preserved like artifacts behind glass, but to be remembered as movement. A living index of everything that shaped the work you see now, and everything that may yet return in another form when it’s ready to speak again.

This archive exists as a lineage rather than a static record. Each iteration is a continuation rather than a replacement—work that changes form without losing its root system. Defunct platforms, rebranded series, and transformed projects are held here not as endings, but as stages in a living ecology of creative work: branches that have fallen, shifted, or grown into new structures while remaining part of the same organism.

Completed Editorial Series

These written works represent completed cycles of editorial inquiry and investigation. Each series captures a distinct phase of focus and form, now held in its finished state within the broader archive of evolving creative work.

WTF Cryptos (TBK Magazine Era)
Cryptozoology Reporting • Cryptid Accounts • Folkloric Documentation

An early editorial column published through TBK Magazine, WTF Cryptos focused on cryptozoology and reported cryptid phenomena, gathering sightings, historical references, and cultural accounts surrounding alleged unknown creatures.

The series approached cryptids as narrative and cultural artifacts rather than claims to be proven or disproven, prioritizing documentation, breadth of sources, and the preservation of reported material over interpretation or conclusion.

This body of work represents the foundational phase of what would later evolve into The Veil. It exists now as an origin point within the broader creative archive, preserved in its original form as part of the magazine’s now-defunct publication history.

The Veil

Paranormal Research • Liminal Studies • Folklore

A long-form editorial series exploring cryptids, hauntings, folklore, reincarnation accounts, urban legends, and anomalous phenomena.

Originally launched in 2019 at the now-defunct TBK Magazine under the title WTF Cryptos, the work began as cryptozoological reporting and expanded over time into broader folklore and anomalous studies. Across its lifespan, it documented myth, coincidence, and unexplained experience as cultural material rather than belief-based assertion.

The series is now complete and exists as a concluded body of written work.

The Word

Writing Practice • Author Interviews • Craft Studies
An interview and writing-focused editorial series centered on conversations with authors, alongside reflections on craft, publishing, and the writing process.

Functioning alongside and after the early Veil material, The Word represents a more direct engagement with writers themselves—shifting from external anomalous subject matter into internal creative practice and authorship. It served as an early structural precursor to later advice-oriented work, including what would eventually become Dear Indie.

The series is now complete and remains part of the broader concluded editorial record.

Completed Audio Works (Podcasts)

These audio projects exist as concluded works—finished cycles of conversation, analysis, and exploration. Though no longer in active production, they remain preserved as part of the broader creative record, carrying forward the traces of how the work once sounded when it was spoken instead of written.

Jottercast

Paranormal Discussion • Folklore Analysis • Unexplained Phenomena

A conversational podcast emerging from the thematic foundation of The Veil, Jottercast explores cryptids, folklore, paranormal accounts, and lived experiences of the unexplained. The series translates the investigative and observational tone of the written editorial work into spoken dialogue, where stories are no longer confined to analysis on the page but allowed to unfold through conversation, reflection, and shared interpretation.

Across its episodes, Jottercast moves through accounts of the strange with an emphasis on narrative texture rather than validation or dismissal. It treats folklore and anomaly as cultural artifacts—things shaped by memory, retelling, and human perception. While no longer in active production, the series remains archived, with select episodes still accessible as part of its continuing record.

The PJ People Podcast

Film Analysis • Narrative Studies • Critique

A collaborative, spoiler-based podcast focused on reviewing and analyzing films through the combined lenses of storytelling, writing craft, and psychology. PJ People Podcast examined narrative structure, character motivation, genre construction, and thematic design, with particular attention to horror, thriller, and other story-driven cinematic forms.

The series approached film not as passive entertainment, but as constructed language—breaking down how stories influence emotion, perception, and meaning through structure and psychological resonance. It was shaped by the shared backgrounds of its hosts in writing and narrative theory, turning each episode into both critique and conversation.

This podcast is now concluded and no longer in production, but remains preserved as part of the broader creative archive.
