So much of our shared history is fading or forgotten. Some has simply never been noticed.
What remains are old letters, postcards, photographs, and artifacts.
But, in these lie the stories.
Over the years I have collected thousands of items, and I am passionate about rediscovering their stories.
I share these stories in books, novels, images, and social storytelling. To date I have recaptured more than a thousand stories of history and humanity.
I hope you enjoy what I’ve created and found.
