I’m one away from 50 songs, y’all. And hopefully, by the time my next post goes up, I will have crossed that threshold and begun the downhill slope.
I never thought I’d be able to do this, but I can see it. I can smell it. It’s at my fingertips. And much more attainable than I thought.
I’ve written some bad songs. And I’ve written some good songs. I’ve written many more songs than I’ve posted, becuase I don’t have time to get them together each time. There’s some stuff in the works that I’m excited about, but haven’t been able to properly record & post! You’ll have to wait & see.
I have no idea what’s next. But I’m LOVING where this has taken me so far. I can easily see how I’ve grown in the craft of songwriting. I’ve learned a LOT. I’ve co-written with some talented people. I’ve written a jingle for a radio show in England (I know – I didn’t tell y’all. Sorry). I submitted a song in a contest. I’ve done more jingles for a few podcasts. I’ve submitted a song to a Christian Literary Journal that will be published in the Fall. I feel like I’m finally… me.
And, I’m excited.
Yes. I’m excited.
So. I just wanted to give an update. And say “thank you” for continuing to cheer me on!
“THANK YOU!!!”
Mandy, that is AWESOME!!! You are SUCH an inspiration. And not just for musicians. I mean, other than the little ditties I make up for Annalyn and my cats, I will probably never write a song. But you set this lofty yet relevant goal for yourself, decided how you needed to be held accountable, and you are DOING IT.
Awesome.
Congratulations on the milestone(s)! You seem more courageous … more confident now … which prob means you were this before too, only now you know it.
woohoo! wow, mandy that’s seriously awesome.
way to be, chica. keep it up.
Very cool! And impressive!! Way to go!!!
That is so great, Mandy. Good for you!
It’s nice to stop back by here and “see” you again!
Genny
YOU GO, GIRL!!!
Oh Sweet Friend, that is beautiful. Doing and basking in something you were made for. I am so thankful with you. Yay and double yay.
“I feel like I’m finally… me.”
THAT..made my day. no. my week!
I have gooseflesh. That’s absolutely brilliant!
I’m so NOT a cheerleader type, but I darn nearly made some pom-poms for that one. PRESS ON, SISTER.
