I have always been a radio girl. I may not have always studied each and every song as hard as others: knowing the producers and writers and performers of every single song; knowing when they were released and if they were reprises; knowing the origin of every breakbeat and every sample. But my radio was … Read More
My daughter asked me if I’ll be updated ThoughtsDaughter. I told her I would. I wondered why she asked. Maybe she’s been reading. All good either way. Here’s me sticking to my promise. I was holding it together for the last… 48 hours and the thought crossed my mind… Does anyone get saved? Will anyone … Read More

It doesn’t make sense to beg for these things. If someone doesn’t want to… If they aren’t naturally inclined to…. or inspired to… what’s the sense of begging for it… bribing them… cajoling or convincing? That’s just more proof in the pudding that they don’t want it THAT bad. Friends, lovers, jobs, whatever. It. Is. … Read More
