My website is back up- I never left.

Hi!!! After years in hibernation, my site is back up! So: While in general I'm a pretty transparent/honest person, I'm also fiercely protective of my privacy- I'm fiercely protective of those I love, often to my own detriment. I detest others exaggerating, lying, baiting, or twisting context for their own motives, narrating on my behalf, or exploiting me in any way... To put it simply, I have a zero-tolerance policy for malicious gossip, rumors, and scapegoating; notably, when the goal is devaluing, dismissing, discrediting, humiliating, and silencing women. Let me make myself very clear: Nobody speaks for me, nobody speaks on my behalf.

Due to the nature of, and (de-)evolution of social media and the internet- I have not had public, personal social media accounts for years, and I have fully distanced myself (...years ago) from the people who have harmed me, and who still continue trying to, while I've regained some sense of control over my life, my image, my voice. My site is my little home for updates, my music, and general Tom Foolery. Thank you for reading.

New songs

I used to update here a few years ago, but didn't keep up with it- I'm finally in a spot where I can record material. The noise is a problem, but I'm working through it. I lived in Los Angeles for awhile. I'll probably end up back there at some point, but I have a lease for now. More on that in another post.

New songs: I've been writing/composing/recording since I was a kid. Some things date back... really far. I have new work that I'd like to become an album (albums... aren't those from the 90's?), and might combine some of it with older work. I would also like to finally start playing out- In the past, I tried to assemble some sort of live band, but this time, I'll just go it solo, whether or not I can piece that together.

I sold my instrument setup both before moving to, and before coming back from, Los Angeles. I finally reacquired instruments and such, so I can just go at it. I do need to get my hands on an acoustic guitar.

Next time
