ONLINE PRESSKIT CREATIVITY & CHAOS BLOG
Following mandatory COVID-19 lockdown in California—March 19, 2020—my music career quietly slipped from its prominent role in my creative life. My unfinished novel immediately took over the reins. In four years time, I would finally type that last sentence of the epilogue. But I had sixty-three chapters and too many words, embarrassingly so. I am currently reworking the novel using jigsaws and hatchets, cutting over 30,000 words from the manuscript, throwing out chapters, rewriting others, reshaping and rearranging.
Between publishing short stories, writing blog posts about creative meltdowns and triumphs, social media stick-to-itiveness, my days became abundantly filled. For the past two years, I've been on a family sojourn in small-town Indiana, but have plans to return to Southern California before the end of 2026. Rest assured, I am not finished with music. I just don't know what it'll look like yet. I am including below the artwork for my shelved album/CD release that never came to fruition. I believe that the crumbling of old systems—even the good ones—are part of our personal, ever-evolving soul's path.
