January Spring Cleaning

Doing some freshening up of the site here, as part of the blogging challenge I’m doing. (Called Music Success in Nine Weeks You can read my weeks 1 & 2 blog entries here (week 1) or here (week 2), if you’re curious. Week 3 entry is coming on Monday.)

Yes it’s GREAT to *finally* add some of the things that have been missing from this place for a loooooong time…

Like… for ages, people have been asking me what it would take for me to show up in their town to play a show. And so today I posted a page called How To Host a House Concert! Voila!

Website, website….I’m on a roll now. More updates coming!

PS, and of course, be sure to email me if you want me to come play! :) The whole point of this blogging challenge is to get us to the land of more music!

The Elevator Pitch

More musings from the pen (keyboard) of my new blogger persona. Read my latest entry: Hold the door, this elevator is going up!

I’d love to hear your thoughts. Check out my blog and leave your comments while you’re there!

And the winner is…

Congratulations Ross Douglas! Winner of “Something Homemade By Me!” for taking my “How would you describe me to your friends?” survey. Woo hoo! And thanks, too, goes out to everyone who took the time to fill it in! I’ll let you know when the pitch is up. :)

The survey is now closed! Thanks everyone who took time out to respond. I’ve had a quick peek at them… and your insights are awesome! I’ll be sitting down this afternoon to draft up that pitch… should be no problem after this!!

Oh… and I’ll be announcing the winner of the draw from all the respondents for “Something Homemade By Me!” at any moment!!! As soon as I put wood on the fire, it’s draw time!

Something Homemade

Tomorrow is the deadline to win “something homemade by me.” Wow. Who wouldn’t want that? :D All you need to do is take five to ten minutes to fill out a four question survey (+ one bonus question!) designed to help me write a short “elevator pitch” for my Music Success in Nine Weeks blogging challenge.

That makes today a good day to weigh in on my survey! You have until Saturday January 20th 1pm PST to get your name in the draw.

By the way, the response so far has been awesome! I have been sneaking quick peeks here and there to see which answers are trending, as well as reading a few of the comments and recommendations people have left me. I am soooo completely touched by your feedback! I can’t wait to sit down tomorrow afternoon and really parse through everything! I’ll be posting the results and some choice comments as soon as I can!

Of course, I’ll also be announcing the winner of “something homemade by me”, who will be randomly selected out of all the respondents!! Woo hoo!

Next up: take all your amazing feedback and condense it down into 2 or 3 sentences to use as my “elevator pitch”. To introduce my music to people who have never heard of me before… and entice them to check it out! :) I aim to post that on my Letters To My Editor blog this Monday along with my next blog entry for the blogging challenge. Talk to you soon! xok

How would you describe me to your friends?

It’s week 2 of “Music Success in Nine Weeks”: This week’s task? Create an “elevator pitch” that entices someone to check out my music if they haven’t heard it before.

Here’s what I’ve decided to do to get this week’s challenge done. Rather than write what I think I sound like, I thought it would be interesting to put it out to you! What do YOU think I sound like? By that I mean, if you were going to tell a friend to check out my music, how would YOU describe it?

To figure this out, I’ve created a short survey (Four questions plus one bonus question and a couple of feedback questions for the draw.) It would be amazing if you could take 5 to 10 minutes to fill it out for me.

Click here to take the survey!

Everyone who responds (limited to the first 100) has the opportunity to enter into a draw. (Be sure to leave your address at the end of the survey!) One winner will receive something homemade by me! (Not sure what it is yet, still got to make it. But I promise it will be lovingly made by my hands ‘n mind just for you!)

The survey is be limited to the first 100 respondents, and the
Draw date is Saturday January 21st at 1pm PST. so hurry!

Thanks sooooo much in advance!!
