As it turns out, the audition video for America’s Got Talent can now be 2 to 3 minutes instead of the previous 90 seconds. (I never did figure out how I was going to do the “minute and a half thing” without hacking my precious original to death!) Once the song could be a little longer, it was a “piece of cake” to put an abbreviated version together. So, the shoot was a week ago, and extremely fun. Two days later we edited the visual, making decisions about which camera view to use where. (I’ve never been a part of the edit before, and was surprised to find it quite amusing!) Tomorrow we mix the audio. (I’m kind of an old hand at adjusting sound levels, but it’s always exciting to “frost the freshly baked cake”!) Then, off my submission will go to A.G.T. Shortly after, we’ll have it up on You Tube. Go to “Cynthia Bythell Channel” and look for my song, The Wish Planet. Hope you enjoy it….

“Springified”
ByCynthiaIt’s the season for something new. So when I got an email intro to Dan Damon from our mutual webmaster, I absolutely had to go hear him. Dan performs both jazz & spiritual music just like I do, and plays an extremely pleasant jazz piano at Hotel Mac in Pt. Richmond. It was a lovely evening and so nice to meet…
Wishing You Love

Our eyes met, and we smiled simultaneously. Minutes later I turned, and she was sitting next to me. A year later, we were married…
Sundays Are “Event-Full” this Month!
ByCynthiaI’ve been asked to tell my story at the Unity Castro Valley 10:30 church service this coming Sunday 9/9. Yes, I was brave enough to write and post it on my website’s Inspirational Page and Face Book timeline, but sharing it live? Scary!!! Actually, I’m sure it will be fine if I ask Spirit to speak through me, and remember that…
Loving Aspirations
ByCynthiaIt’s the “month of love” again. As always, I’m deeply grateful for my loving partner of multiple decades, loving parents who live on in my heart, and so many loving friends and business relationships. This year I’m looking beyond personal relationships at the bigger picture. Yep, I’m thinking really BIG! Here goes: I aspire to love each moment. (That…
