I retired from my ‘other lives’ which mostly involved aviation, teaching and writing.  I always wanted to know how to write country music.  I took three crueling years of training from a Nashville Pro.  Writing music is the hardest ‘job’ I’ve ever had and I’ll admit it is anxiety producing for me. I write from emotional spaces and pictures in my mind.

I took seven years of piano as a child. When I have the time, I'll review those three chords country music is all about.. I don't sing.....no, no, no:) I am a sucker for creativity. I figure things out, slowly and painfully!! I have a sense of humor - guess that's my biggest skill and a LOT of stories:)

Bob Dylan, The Eagles, Brett Young, Garth Brooks, Judy Collins, Ed Sheeran, Jason Aldeen, Adele, Jarod Neiman, Tim McGraw, Eric Church, Luke Combs, Pink, Chris Stapleton, Brett Elderidge, George Straight, and sooo many more.
