Since my good friend and co-writer Laurie’s passing in 2021, I’ve tried various paths for this site—moving it to Medium, exploring Substack, re-imagining its purpose entirely. Each attempt felt like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. Something was always missing, always slightly out of alignment with what sundaymorningblogger.com was meant to be.
The answer, I’ve realized, was here all along. This space was designed for simplicity. For writing that exists purely for the joy of expression and connection. No newsletters demanding your email address. No advertisements fragmenting your attention. No metrics to chase or algorithms to please. Just words on a page, offered in the spirit of thoughtful reverie that Laurie and I envisioned from the beginning.
So I’m returning to our original intention. The site will remain as it was always meant to be—a distraction-free haven for readers who appreciate the quiet comfort of well-crafted words. I plan to share new articles, essays, poems, and stories every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday, continuing the work that meant so much to us both.
I don’t know if anyone is still visiting these pages. The internet has grown ever louder, ever more insistent on engagement and interaction. Our approach here feels almost anachronistic in its simplicity—requiring you to actually bookmark the site and return of your own accord, without prompts or notifications to pull you back.
But perhaps that’s exactly what gives this space its value. Since the world is in constant demands for our attention, there’s something meaningful about choosing to return to a quiet place. If you’re reading these words, know that your presence here is deeply appreciated. Your decision to visit this humble corner of the internet means that Laurie’s legacy continues, that our shared vision still resonates.
I can’t promise what the future holds for sundaymorningblogger.com, but I can promise this: for as long as I continue writing here, it will remain true to its founding principles—a place of simplicity, thoughtfulness, and genuine expression. A digital Sunday morning, available any day of the week, for anyone who needs a moment of peace.
Thank you for being here.
I look forward to continuing this journey with you, wherever it may lead.
