Hello and Happy New Year!
My moniker is Soprano Musings and I am here for the music.
Started my love affair with a Walkman and some cassette tapes, and over the years that love has only grown.ย
Throughout it all – Music has always been there. Homeroom, homework, home wreck and heartache – the beat of good groove or a lullaby lyric to whatever I could get my hands was the ultimate source of comfort.
Now that I am an adult (on most days-lol) I would like to make a career out of it. Learning that the limits for that are only the ones that I set, so I’m looking towards the sky ๐
Along this journey I’ve discovered a few new love too. Writing! Sigh….
There have been many songs that I’ve penned over time that may have never seen the light of day if I didn’t find this new joy of mine (<<–See what I did there? hehe).
Writing Haiku has been awesome! Also, I like the challenge of writing about topics that I struggle with has been therapeutic.
Not to mention the confidence I’ve gained to finally share some of the stories in my head. ย Speaking of stories, I am currently working on my first book! Will be sharing more about that in later posts, so keep a look out ๐
To wrap this up, I am many things – friend, sister, and artist. And I am here to explore. Explore and learn more about myself as a person, a musician, a friend, and who knows what else.
Either way, I can not wait to find out!
Hope ya’ll will join me.
Thanks!
Looking forward to hearing about your book, I’m busy on mine too. By the way I love your header image. ๐

Thank you! I’m getting ready to create a page chronicling my experience and thoughts leading up to publishing it. Is this your first one too?

Yes. I started it a year ago, then picked it up again recently. Making good progress on a couple of childrens books too. I’m aiming for 7000 words a week which should be achievable without being soul destroying

Nice! I started mine about a year ago and got discouraged when I tried to stick to the word count goal that I made. Now I have a new goal – finish working on the entire book BEFORE going back to check the word count. lol Hope to have it published by the end of the year ๐

I need a first draft of my “Great American Novel”(I’m from UK) and 2 -3 kids books done by end of March because that’s when the day job gets super hectic for about 6 months. No pressure.

Music is something you can always count on. Besides writing, it’s my life. Singing makes the world go away and makes me feel so alive. I enjoyed you post! Keep it up. ๐

Cool! Passionate about music in general, or is there a certain aspect of it that you love more?

What I love is being able to express myself. I didn’t sing or play my guitar for over 30 years. When I rediscovered my songs again, it healed me from terrible grief and even allowed me to write lyrics about my unhappy marriage (which led to a divorce). So music changed my life in so many ways! A song is a gift from above.
