The publishing program
The body of work is published across three categorically distinct streams. Each stream has its own register, audience, and structural function. The streams are kept structurally separate so that material in one register does not bleed into a stream organized around another register.
Stream 1 — The Code in the Conduit
For tradesmen and general readers. The lived-account stream.
Sources from the author's lived experience as an IBEW journeyman wireman and senior NCO. Engages the tradesman audience in trade-book narrative voice. Carries the structural conviction the framework was abstracted from.
Book 1 — The Code in the Conduit: Surviving the Shadow Command of Corporate Construction
Released August 1, 2026. The source narrative, written from the trade floor. Three parts, twenty chapters, and a closing appendix, The Framework in Brief. If you carry a card, this book will read like your own timecard. If you run work, it will show you what your workforce has been trying to hand you.
196 pages, 6×9 trade paperback, and direct-sale digital bundle (PDF + EPUB + AI-narrated M4B audiobook). ISBN 979-8-9972777-0-3. Scholarly deposit: Zenodo record 21488315.
Buy digital bundle — $9.99 Buy paperback — $12.99 Buy print + digital bundle — $19.99
Book 2 (working title TBD)
The lived-struggle longitudinal document. Documents continued theoretical and educational development and struggle within the trade managing the framework's concepts while actively suffering from the failures it names. Capture is ongoing. Publication target when matter status and de-identification discipline allow.
Stream 2 — Honest Authority series
For executives, boards, and governance bodies. The executive operating-view stream.
Written for decision-makers — executives, boards, governance bodies, change committees. Operational and decision-support in tone. The series takes its name from the doctrinal construct it operationalizes — authority that survives scrutiny because it is structured to be visible and accountable.
Book 1 — The Machine That Sees Itself: An Operating View for the People Who Hold the Authority to Act
Released August 1, 2026. Vol 1 of the Honest Authority series. An operating view of the gap between the architecture the org chart shows and the architecture actually making decisions, written for executives, boards, governance bodies, and change committees. Short by design; it reveals, it does not prescribe.
172 pages, 6×9 trade paperback, and direct-sale digital bundle (PDF + EPUB + AI-narrated M4B audiobook). ISBN 979-8-9972777-1-0. Scholarly deposit: Zenodo record 21470581.
Buy digital bundle — $9.99 Buy paperback — $14.99 Buy print + digital bundle — $19.99
Subsequent Honest Authority volumes
Develop the executive operating-view program across additional dimensions. Potential candidates: civic-scaling of authority-bound-to-accountability, macro-stakes diffusion bridge, polity-scale authority structure.
Stream 3 — The SCT Tool Kit
For practitioners deploying the framework. A reference library, not a sequential book series.
Written for practitioners — anyone deploying the framework in an organization, whether external or internal. Holds the operational specifications, diagnostic protocols, training pathways, and reference apparatus. Open-ended by design; new items are added as warranted.
First item — The Practitioner's Handbook: Structural Command Theory Deployment Reference
Available now. Vol 1 of the SCT Tool Kit. A deployment reference written in the tradition of a technical standard: article-numbered chapters, upfront definitions, and mandatory-permissive-informational language conventions. The reader test is a qualified reader executing a deployment from the volume alone under proper governance adherence.
261 pages, 6.25×9.5 trade paperback, and direct-sale digital edition (PDF). ISBN 979-8-9972777-2-7. Scholarly deposit: Zenodo record 21471056.
Buy digital (PDF) — $12.99 Buy paperback — $19.99 Buy print + digital bundle — $24.99
Subsequent SCT Tool Kit items
Accumulate as the framework develops — empirical-program operationalization specifications, diagnostic-instrument refinements, case-study volumes, training-program materials, sector-specific deployment templates, any other practitioner-deployment apparatus that operational or academic progress produces.
Why three streams, not a single series
Each stream serves a distinct audience. Material aimed at tradesmen lives in The Code in the Conduit; material aimed at executives lives in Honest Authority; material aimed at practitioners lives in The SCT Tool Kit. The streams are kept structurally separate so that writing for one audience does not get mixed into a book aimed at another.
This is the same discipline the framework names in its own doctrine: when separation is structural rather than rule-enforced, categorically distinct outcomes follow by construction.
