Dear Friends,
There’s so much to tell you this month that I’m not even sure where to begin!

The CDs are here, I’ve had the first release event with another one to come this Saturday, and despite the ongoing need for publicity, performances, trips to the post office, emails, and everything that’s involved in flogging the CDs, an enormous sense of relief has set in.

The countdown begins

The CD and jacket are being duplicated as I type. With a little luck, I’ll actually beat the last minute deadline by nearly a week, which means I could have the albums in hand by Saturday. Several people have asked if I get to relax now. Yes, well. Wishful thinking!
Next there are liner notes to [...]
