If you’ve spent any time reading Ink Blots and Teapots, you’ve probably noticed that history, faith, and quiet wonder have a way of finding their way into my writing.

Over the past year, one particular thread continued to grow until it became something that needed a home of its own.

That home is The Living Rosary Archives.

The Archives began with a simple desire: to better understand the Rosary—not only as a prayer, but as a living tradition shaped by history, craftsmanship, materials, devotion, and the countless hands that have carried it across generations.

Today, the project has grown far beyond that original idea.

There you’ll find research articles exploring the history of Catholic prayers, rosary materials, artisans and makers, devotional objects, Marian feasts, Church history, councils, papal writings, and the traditions that have shaped Catholic life throughout the centuries. My goal is not simply to present facts, but to make history approachable, thoughtful, and rooted in trustworthy sources.

Whether you’re a lifelong Catholic, someone returning to the faith, a rosary collector, a history enthusiast, or simply a curious reader, I hope you’ll find something worth exploring.

Thank you for supporting both journeys. While Ink Blots and Teapots remains my home for creative writing, poetry, and personal reflections, The Living Rosary Archives has become my place for preserving the stories, traditions, and history that continue to inspire me.
