This space is my creative crossroads, where the paths of discovery, faith, storytelling, and art meet. Here, I explore what happens when we choose the scenic route through life instead of the fast lane.
Every essay, photo, and story here celebrates the art of taking your time, of wandering the long way home.
So come along, the map is open, the road is waiting, and there’s beauty to be found in every mile.

Rite of Fancy is where my reading life lives.
It holds reflections on books that form the mind and steady the spirit—classics, contemporary literature, philosophy, theology, and thoughtful detours in between. Some are part of an ongoing Great Books journey; others simply arrived at the right moment.

Through research and reflection, each piece preserves the memory of an individual, placing names, service records, and fragments of history back into human context.
The aim is not spectacle, but dignity; not politics, but remembrance.
Patriotism, here, is practiced quietly.
