Today I have to correct the Scrivener versions for ebooks, then format each of them with the correct backlink pages and ISBN (I’m doing individual versions for each site on which I post the book.)
If I have time left over, I need to do work on my Cadence Drake site.
Here’s a sneak peek at the music video. It sounds MUCH better if you have headphones on. It also sounds much better if you remember that I’m a writer who sings, and not a singer who writes… 🙄

Anyway…
Write well. ONWARD!
I didn’t expect that….you can sing as well. Just want to say that you have a very lovely voice. I love the sneak peek. Congratulations and more power! 🙂
That was cool – I got shivers as soon as you started singing!
😀 Thank you.
Well, I didn’t expect that.
Sorry, couldn’t resist. 😉 I love it! And the line in your post about it sounding better in headphones–didn’t I say that every time I posted a song, too, oh yeah. Because I mix using the headphones, yes, I know, it’s a no-no; but I don’t have good monitor speakers and can’t really afford ’em. Yet.
Yeah. I have only the built-in speakers on my computer, which are…well. Not wonderful. So for now I’m having to mix with the headphones.
If I do many more of these, though, I’m going to have to find a place on my desk for speakers, and find a pair that doesn’t suck.
