T.L. Johnson

About the Author

T.L. Johnson is a lifelong storyteller who has been writing across genres for decades—quietly, steadily, and often in the margins of a busy life. His work blends imagination with insight, shaped by years of experience, an enduring sense of wonder, and, more recently, profound physical challenges.

In the past five years, T.L.’s journey has changed dramatically. A series of unexpected health issues, finally identified as a rare genetic disorder, and over 33 surgeries led to a permanent disability and an early, unwanted retirement. While the body has slowed, the stories haven’t. Writing has become both a lifeline and a quiet rebellion—a way to process, preserve, and push forward.

Today, he shares archived pieces, past reflections, and the occasional new work as health allows. While his ability to write consistently is limited, the drive to create remains. With the help of his daughter and a small circle of trusted supporters, he hopes to bring more of his prose and poetic fragments to light in the coming years.

This space is not a call to action—it’s a window into a life of stories: some already told, others still whispering.

Coming Soon: Stories from the archives. tories don’t expire. They wait.

Over the years, I’ve written hundreds of pieces—reflections, short stories, poems, essays—that lived quietly on older blogs, private notebooks, and forgotten hard drives. Some were shared briefly, others never saw the light of day.

This space is where I revisit them.

You may find a few pieces lightly polished, others restored exactly as they first appeared. I like to think of them not as outdated, but as seasoned—pages from a different chapter in my writing life, now brought back to breathe again.

They’re not nostalgia. They’re part of the library. Enter the Vvault here.
