02.07.25 FAWM #14! Off to a slow start, on account of some travel / family stuff the first week of February. But hoping to get back on track, hear what everyone has been up to, and start posting as well. Note: I have decided to swipe long-time FAWM friend / collaborator @fearlessflight2014 's "FAWM Journal" approach to this year's about/bio section, so, further updates here as the month progresses.

02.11.25 I continue to have a glacial FAWM, most noticeably, I haven't managed to visit 'round and do any listening or commenting so far. Which I am about to embark on now. I've also let a couple potential collaborations languish, which I also aim to do something about as well. In short – it's been hard getting in the groove this year, which is reflective of some bigger-picture lack of groove, I imagine. Still, there's more than half a month left, so all is not lost.

02.15.25 Pretty pleased with this latest song (#6), and discovered this morning that I wrote one for my Monday night song meeting this week that I forgot (???) about until today. How do you forget about a song? So even though they had notes for me that I may or may not need to address, once I get that one recorded and posted I'll be nearly on track, as far as that's 7 songs by mid-February.

But I'm still woefully behind on my listening, so there's that.

Thanks for your really nice comments on my Fred and Ginger song and public domain help!

Have you had any thoughts re. writing something together? Any pref on where to start? I understand if you are running out of time.

great to discover this morning that you're back here!....... and in a year where nothing is happening, when its so business as usual in the world (irony alert!). even if you got a late start, you've done some great stuff already. By the way, tho I won't be exactly in your neck of the woods in March, I will be closer- me and two friends (both like me longtime NY'ers) will be in, of all places, Tulsa Oklahoma near the end of March to see a certain Bobby D start his concert tour (and to check out the museum for him and for woody guthrie which are both in tulsa). Should be easy to spot us, we'll be the ones looking for a bagel with a schmear or at least an egg cream! :)

Thanks for swinging by and listening/commenting. Your words always mean so much to me. Your encouragement is hugely appreciate. I gotta tell you that last Spring I did three months of Fretboard Confidential. It was so good; I learned a ton. There was so much to work on technique wise, it was a gift. I do plan to dive back in when the time is right. That said, I'm using, and practicing, what I've learned every day. Pretty sure all my short tunes this year have your fingerprints all over them...Looking forward to hearing more of your music. I jump at the chance to listen...

I was so excited to bust your zong on your first song I didn’t pay much attention to the Palindrome, hence no mention of it in my comment. Well, I’ve listened a few more time and I just wanted to acknowledge the intelligent and witty song writing…Bravo!

That works fine as I already have taken on enough to keep me quite busy this first week!
