Tracing hidden lines. Rebuilding forgotten connections.
Books and long-form works exploring identity, lineage, diaspora, culture, belonging, and the fragments that reconnect people to purpose.
The journey behind the work
My writing began with questions of identity, origin, and belonging. Over time, those questions expanded into a larger body of work about family lines, cultural memory, diaspora reconnection, and Africa’s future.
Some books begin with research. Some begin with memory. Others begin with a fracture that refuses to stay hidden.
GOLD
GOLD: A Hidden Line. A Forgotten Origin began as a search through the McGunn / McElgunn line toward Ireland.
Beneath the genealogy, it became a deeper story about identity, hidden family lines, forgotten origins, and what happens when fragments begin to reconnect.
FRACTURE
Coming next.
FRACTURE explores the feeling that something is missing — not only through adoption, but through family, culture, language, memory, community, and purpose.
It is the next entry point into a larger body of work about disconnection, return, and becoming whole.
For aligned partners
I’m interested in conversations around African heritage, diaspora reconnection, cultural tourism, storytelling, publishing, podcasts, film, genealogy, and community-building.
This work is especially aligned with people and organizations building bridges between memory, culture, creativity, and future opportunity.
