Journal ¶
A lot of exciting things have been happening. I met Michael St. Clair, a very talented music producer. I've begun to record my songs. I'm also writing more. It's been exciting, for someone who never thought of herself as a singer/songwriter ever. I've always loved music and art tho, the way it moves you. I also had the pleasure of meeting Gunnar Thorderson. He is going places. Together, he, Michael, and my friend Aaron, started some awesome stuff. A lot is in store with this talented group. Photo shoots, scene work, acting projects, extra work, duets, and a strong youtube miniseries. Something is coming. Something big. And i'm glad you get to witness the process.
Gunnar told me a lot about the biz. He was so willing to dispense his knowledge about the industry.
