Exactly!!!!

I used to play her songs all the time when I was gigging. So wonderful, such a fantastic, deeply talented artist.

The only value of this event for Klown is that it gave him another opportunity to close his eyes and pretend to listen to what anyone else says.

Yes, there must be accountability. But I guess it was too much to hope that Bluesky's promise of a "quieter" social media actually meant anything.

There is no longer any safe place to enjoy posts by authors or poets or songwriters. Everything has been infiltrated by posts about the Klown and everyone screaming and yelling and pointing fingers at each other.

But isn't this their plan?

I've been assigned my fourth "light novel" for ESL learners who are fairly advanced.

This will not be for children, but it should still have illustrations.

Can anyone recommend similar types of books with strong, but not complicated stories and illustrations?

Hi Lanie! Yeah, left Twitter where it belongs, and came here, but it's been quite quiet! Hello again! Whatcha workin' on?

My boy Dandy soaking up the sun and the rainbows.

Wishing everyone a beautiful, colorful, creatively-fulfilled day.

Will be recording a new pop song w/awesome singer next week. (I wrote music/lyrics.) End of month recording my first album of original music in over 20 years. Following that, starting my 4th "light novel." Three should be published within the next few months.

What are my fellow creatives up to?

I am looking to connect with creatives -- especially screenwriters/songwriters/book authors. Random nutcases with no posts and "sexy" photos wanting to "connect." will be immediately blocked. Please seek your "fans" elsewhere.

A must view!

Is this the only place to view this? This should have MILLIONS of views and should be front page news. I'd love to see how Krusti Dog Killer Gnome would respond to this. SHE CAN'T.

Why doesn't he just build one higher than the Burj Khalifa, and then he can have the tallest structure in the world? Since he somehow believes that every one on earth should look up to him. I, for one, will not.

BlueSky was pleasant for a while, but it is turning into a sort of parallel universe Threads.

It is impossible to stay away from all the political noise.

It will "shut down"? GOOD.

TOO TIRED FOR TEARS (feat. Samuel Macgregor) “Too Tired for Tears” was written during a period of major transition, when everything seemed to be moving at once. Even though I was emotionally exhausted, there was no time to stop — not even to she

If you're in the mood to take a 3'11" break, here's my latest, featuring the amazing vocalist Samuel Macgregor.

I wrote the music and lyrics and played the piano. Samuel did the rest. He is NOT AI. He's very real. I lucked out.

GOODBYE MY BEST FRIEND (featuring Aimée Blackschleger) Written after the conclusion of the French series

To those of you who use SoundCloud, here is a song I wrote and produced after the end of "Call My Agent!" This wonderful French show was my "best friend" all during Covid, so I was really crushed when it ended.

There will be more songs and lyric videos coming soon!

Good; makes me proud to be an American who would never support performing at a place where a wannabe dictator's name was added because he thinks he's as important as JFK. (Hint: HE'S NOT.)

Happy holidays all! Have any of my Creative Peeps written/published a YA novel? I'd love to know a bit about your journey and if the book is available on Amazon, etc., I'd like to purchase it.

LMK :)

How lovely to connect! I look forward to reading your work!
