I am not a morning person. And yet I love the morning. More and more as I get further removed from my former nocturnal life as a musician. But I don’t think I’ll ever be someone who naturally gets up at the crack of dawn. But a funny thing happens… Continue reading
Hard to believe it’s already been a hundred days and a hundred posts since I started this blog. And yet at the same time, I almost can’t remember not writing here daily. Of course what does that say about my memory then? But once you start doing something you place… Continue reading
