Composing Music! (and updates of randomness)

Randomness

Yeah so the poetry book is ALMOST done. The guts would have been done by now if I hadn’t faced formatting problems. I solved that and its good to go. I just need polishing and a little bit of filling in to do. AND, DorkZombie is going to be doing my cover! I’ve know him for years and years. I’m glad I got him excited about doing it :) I was going to have a friend do a photo shoot of me for the cover but then I felt like it should be graphics instead. So yeah. I better go let my friend know. I will be using the pic he did of me for that newspaper article.

And no, I’m not releasing my poetry book title yet. Its mine, and only the privileged gets to hear it. So nyah ^-^

No, but really people, I do love you. It’s that I don’t want it floating around on the net. I’ve heard horror stories, mmkay?

PIANO!

I have a nice new shiny super fancy, full 88 keys piano weighted electronic piano! This thing is so fancy, it’ll make me coffee in the morning! Holy shit, yo. So yeah, I’ve got a friend who wants to hear what I’ve been learning, but I can’t figure out the software that came with it to record what I play. Grr.

But for the composing part… I’ve always always wanted to write my own music. I mean, I write poetry and stories and whatever else. Music has been the only thing that I haven’t written. I always thought it might be really hard, but I just now decided to Google “how to compose music for piano” and I got THIS GUY HERE! I haven’t even read it all, but it’s really got me going. W00t.

So yeah…

I happened upon this site while trying to find when alyssms will bloom. I started reading. You are a very good writer. First I’ve read anothers blog all the way thru.
I love how you spells em as you say em. Great quips…is that the right word? Your little tags. Anyhoo, enjoyed you…and your life. Bet your poetry is good. Where do you live? I’m in Eugene, Oregon and I’m an old woman.

I’m looking forward to reading about your self-publishing experiences. I’ve just posted a pro-self-publishing post at my site.
