On Journeyman as Canon
Journeyman is the canonical record of my long-form writing.
Most thinking does not begin here. It begins as fragments, notes, conversations, drafts, and private work. Only a small portion of that material is gathered, revised, and preserved.
What appears here has passed that threshold.
This site does not track progress. It does not capture ideas in motion. It holds work that is complete enough to stand without further clarification.
Some entries preserve observations. Others assert judgment. Both are intentional.
Chronology is the primary structure. Time is the honest index of thought.
Themes may recur, but they are not imposed in advance. Patterns are allowed to surface only after repetition earns them.
Other platforms may host excerpts, references, or temporary representations. This site holds the record.
Journeyman is not optimized for reach, cadence, or performance. Writing accumulates here when it is ready, not when it is demanded.
Journeyman is not a brand. It is a record.
