Hey Lovelies. I just wanted to pop on and share a little playlist of songs I made that I’ve been listening to lately. I’ve been stuck in what Liz Lamoreux refers to as “the and space”—in a place of both hope and uncertainty. The idea of “the and space” is that we as humans can be both light and dark, sad and happy, hopeful yet uncertain. It is that place…

wanderlust ep now on youtube
Read moreSo if you remember (or if you’re new to my site), I write music. I suppose that makes me a real singer-songwriter. I have a song up on all of the major music outlets (iTunes, Amazon Music, Spotify, etc.) You can also find it on my Youtube channel. Anyway, I share a bit more of my music over on my music page, but I wanted to share it with you…

001 / a mixtape
Read moreHey Lovelies! I wanted to pop this right here on the blog and share the current playlist I’ve been listening to all throughout this Covid Quarantine. I used to create and share these types of playlists all the time back when I first began blogging, and it was always one of my favorite things to do. I don’t really know what happened, but I’m hoping I can create and share…

currently / a mixtape
Read moreI haven’t been listening to music like I used to. I think that’s a by product of either getting older or that mainstream music sucks and I don’t want to waste time searching out good, less mainstream, music. So I fall into the trap of listening to my already established favorites and re-listening to past favorites that are still relevant. And you know those songs are special because they can…

her
Read moreThis is “Her.” I’ve been meaning to film an original song video for this song for awhile now to put up on my Youtube channel, but I just haven’t gotten around to it yet. I did however, record a ruff cut of it on Garageband, so I figure I’d share that since it’s been sitting on my laptop for months now. It’s a snippet of a song, but I hope…

when the stars go blue | ryan adams cover
Read more Hey everyone! I’m back again with another cover song, this time “When The Stars Go Blue” by Ryan Adams. The first time I heard this song was while watching Bethany Joy sing it in One Tree Hill with Tyler Hilton. I loved that version but I also love Ryan’s original as well. I find that when I play it, it’s a mixture of the two versions. I really hope…

because i can | katy rose cover
Read moreHey everyone! This year, I wanted to expand my Youtube channel and begin posting some cover songs as well as original songs again after such a long time. I’m not sure how well they are going to be received by you all, especially those of you in my journaling/crafting community, but I decided to start posting them anyway. This first song is a cover of Katy Rose’s “Because I Can.”…

a love song to no one lyric video
Read moreHey friends! So, I made this lyric video to my song “A Love Song To No One” a very long time ago, but it was just released and I wanted to share it here with you all. It’s stop motion animation and I meticulously snapped hundreds of still photos of my setup using pretty scrapbooking bits to create it. I really hope you enjoy it. If you wish to support…

a love song to no one / acoustic single out now!
Read moreReady for yet another amazing announcement?! So, if you didn’t know, I write songs. I’m probably have only talk about my songwriting maybe only one other time here on the blog and that was very long ago, so no worries if you forgot. My music is pretty sacred to me and not many people know about it because it’s just that precious to me and it’s the only form of…

cool for the summer / a mixtape
Read moreI felt it was time to share another mixtape. I wish I could post these more often, but I don’t really listen to music like I used to. But I think that is because I don’t know where to find great music anymore that isn’t from the 1980s. Anyway, this mix is filled with all sorts of modern pop music goodness that I’ve been listening to over the summer. Since summer…

the stars are bright / a mixtape
Read moreSo, I’ve been working on a new story. It’s been awhile since I wrote fiction and a long while since I made a playlist! But I’ve had this idea for this story of mine, which is called the stars are bright (hence the name of the mix), and I even have a few pages of a first chapter! And while the ideas have been swarming around in my head, I decided…
