Between 2015 and 2020, my blog posts were found right here, but since July 2024, I have been adding content on Substack. You can view my entire eclectic archives at https://raysikes.substack.com/, and with a free subscription, new posts will be delivered directly to your inbox or the Substack app.

My first postings presented a lengthy Route 66 travelogue in separate installments, and from that point forward I have been sharing shorter pieces about reading, writing, hunting, sin and redemption, fishing, cars, literature, the Florida Keys, music, dreams, marriage, depression, holiday traditions, tobacco, near brushes with death, Jesus, and a variety of other subjects.

Think of my writing like the weather. At least where I live, we have distinct seasons, and conditions can shift radically in a matter of hours. If you don’t like what I’m writing, keep checking in. It will change.
