About

The Rey Archives were originally stored in an old, rusty, two-drawer filing cabinet I found while at school in Syracuse, New York. I put a new layer of black spray paint on the cabinet and the Archives were born. ReyCorp.com now has this vast library of tales, essays and rants, as well as all of the archived web sites that at one time were a part of ReyCorp.com, online here in the Rey Archives.

Coach’s Notes

I ran a blog for my beer-league softball team. No one seemed to listen. And I cared too much.


Longhouse

Longhouse is a publishing repository. All works included are “in progress.” Everything on this site is a “work in progress.”

I enjoy writing. Aside from blogging politics and other little things, I have ideas for longer form pieces — short stories and films, serials, and full-length feature films. Longhouse is for those pieces. This will hopefully help me write down — and publish — the ideas that come to me in an organized fashion.

All of the different topics or projects that I work on are separated by category, or what I am referring to as “works.” In reality, these works are simply a work in progress, like mostly everything else we do in our lives.

I like to write. I have blogged for years. This is my platform for long-form writing. At least longer.


Correspondence

I write a lot of email. And I use instant messaging as a tool to communicate. These are my conversations. All of them.


Untitled 1980

A memoir. A collection of essays.

I do not know where I am going with this. I wrote a long, rambling, weaving email to a friend of mine, and his reply was, “Apparently you are in the middle of a memoir… it reads well, so keep going.” So I thought I would. I do not think that my life’s story is necessarily worthy of a memoir (although I’d like to think so, I’m not smarter than most people), but I do think that as a collection of essays — independent in nature, yet connected through details — it could serve as an appropriate way to express myself and my life so far.


Saltpeter

A weekly political column.

Waterfront Watch blogger Jeffrey Wisniewski writes about local politics for Hercules Patch.

I have lived in Hercules for six years. I live in the Waterfront with my wife, son and black lab.

I am a proponent of New Urbanism, pedestrianism, smart growth, and the historical integrity of the Hercules Waterfront.

I run the Waterfront Watch blog at www.waterfrontwatch.org.
