Medium (2020 - )
Medium is an on-line publishing platform that promotes social journalism. It's a place where amateur and professional writers alike can go to share their work. I decided to join the platform after the closure of Gemr. I post newly written articles, as well as re-worked versions of older articles from Gemr and RetroCollect. You can find my main profile HERE.
Gemr.com (2018 - 2019)
Sadly, Gemr closed down on the 27th of January, 2020 after being unable to secure funding to keep the site going. However, I was able to make copies of all my articles before that time. Below is a list of the articles I wrote for the site, any that do not currently link out are yet to be made into readable versions. Please not that any articles I've re-purposed for Medium (see above) will link to that version.

RetroCollect.com (2011 - 2016)
RetroCollect went down earlier this year (2020). It shows no signs of coming back on-line so I am in the process of re-building the articles in Google Drive so that they can be viewed once more. Only those articles linked (underlined) can currently be read.

ChronicleChamber.com (2006 - 2017)
I began ChronicleChamber in early 2006 after seeing a need for a proper, news-based The Phantom website. Between 2006 and 2017 I created the world's first The Phantom-exclusive podcast, X-Band, as well as the Phantom Preservation Project which aims to archive and preserve The Phantom media for prosperity.
In 2017 I handed over the site to my colleagues who had helped run it. Since then I have made "guest appearances" on the podcast and as a writer.
