Field Manual: Seeking Feedback on My Journey

personal log

Standing on the ledge, a new day
Hi everyone. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been writing a lot about what’s happening in my life, trying to work things out and keep my balance. Some days, I can’t pull myself away from the computer and end up posting all day. Other days, I just want to disappear for a while. Through it all, I hope my experiences might help others who are going through something similar. I’ve put together a small field manual and published it on KDP (Amazon) under my real name, Kevin
McLaughlin. It’s called “Standing On the Ledge: Field Manual: Rebuilding from the Rubble.” You can get it as a paperback or a Kindle book. I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting and using these ideas myself, but I’m not sure if anyone else has found them useful yet. Even though the site gets steady visitors and my posts get plenty of likes, I haven’t received much feedback. Maybe it’s too soon to expect that. Am I being too technical, or too personal? Maybe I’m not striking the
right balance. The second edition of the book is ready now, expanded from 24 pages to over 90, so there’s a lot of new material. I’ve spent much of tonight editing it. But here’s what I really want: some feedback. Does this seem helpful, or not? Even a quick comment with just a word or two would mean a lot.

Lugh Sulian Standing on the Ledge · Rebuilding from the Rubble Lugh Sulian is a working name for a working moment. This profile exists to hold Standing on the Ledge: Rebuilding from the Rubble—an ongoing, real-time record of what happens after collapse, when old rules stop functioning and new ones haven’t yet earned trust. This is not myth reenactment. Not spiritual bypass. Not curated healing. It’s a field journal from the threshold. The name Lugh points toward skill, clarity, and responsibility carried with awareness. Sulian gestures toward sight—what can be seen when illusion drops away and pretending becomes too expensive. Together, they frame the posture of this work: to look clearly, act deliberately, and refuse to rebuild what already failed. Through short-form video, spoken reflection, and long-form writing, this project explores: Collapse without spectacle Responsibility without authority Burnout as a systems problem, not a personal flaw Pagan cycles as lived practice, not aesthetic Small fires instead of grand rebuilds This space is intentionally unfinished. It documents: Standing still without freezing Moving forward without rushing Learning from rubble instead of hiding it Unplugged-Pagan.com serves as the grounding—seasonal awareness, ritual stripped of performance, and meaning built from experience rather than doctrine. Standing on the Ledge is one expression of that grounding, focused on the human cost of broken systems and the slow work of rebuilding integrity. This is not a teaching platform. It’s a shared watchpost. If you’re here, you’re likely between versions of yourself—tired, alert, uncertain, and still standing. You don’t need answers yet. You need honesty, boundaries, and permission to move at the speed of truth. No conclusions offered. No certainty promised. Still on the ledge. Still watching. Still working the rubble. Godspeed. Optional Short Versions (for profile headers or bios) Short bio (Facebook / site header): Threshold work. Pagan-rooted, process-driven. Documenting collapse, clarity, and the refusal to rebuild what failed.
