I’ve been hit with a sudden urge to audition for America’s Got Talent.  Apparently the desire to share my inspirational originals with the world at large is filling me with some serious chutzpah.  So, it’s time to sit at the piano for hours, somehow cutting my precious jewels down to 90 second finely facetted gems that will magically bring even Bigger Bling!  It’s hard to imagine the Reader’s Digest versions of my envisioned classics measuring up.  But, I think I can. I think I can. I think…. each performance on T.V. will reach about 50 million people.  What if just a few of them hear something in my song that helps them?  This is my dream.

    I came with the intention of loving everyone. It was easy. The holding room at the Phoenix Convention Center was wall to wall with brave people living their lives fully. Some of the younger people looked a bit like they were headed for the guillotine, and my heart really went out to them. It made…

  • What Makes Me Happy

    I love recording at Sandy Stone’s studio. My new CD containing three of my original inspirational songs is done, and I’m happy with it. You probably wouldn’t know what a miracle that is, so let me explain that like so many artists, I am my own worst critic. But, Sandy has a way of capturing…
