Emma Flournoy

Hi all. I had a rough day today. Feeling very discouraged. I struggle with low self-confidence and grapple with loneliness. A lot. And struggle with introverted-exhaustion (I’m constantly around people) and a bit of depression as well.

All in all, I’m very overwhelmed at the moment, so I could use some prayer. I feel like God is calling me to…[Read more]

@emma-flournoy I want to learn all the fiddling styles…Irish, English, Texas swing, Cajun, Spanish, etc. Basically I just love folk music, period. 😛 The crunching sound is a result of a softer bow, as well as really digging into the strings close(ish) to the frog. Another fun thing to try when playing quicker tunes is holding the bow about…[Read more]

@Emma-Flournoy *facepalm* Literally four comments up from where I asked. That’s just embarrassing. XD

@kate-flournoy I totally misspelled your name. Oops. *sheepish grin* I will sing pretty much anything as well; my taste in music ranges from admirably tasteful and cultured to embarrassingly okay with on-trend pop. 😛 I draw the line if it’s a song with one annoying phrase repeated over and over, or one with enough percussion to totally hide…[Read more]

Just letting you all know, that I have gotten your replies, and love them all!
I will get back to you if I have time, but for now know that your responses are appreciated. 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 :)…[Read more]

*watches as thread deflates like a balloon*
Ahem…I found the answer to all our music-writing problems! It is Musescore. What every music composer needs. I’ve only been using it for a few…[Read more]

@f5a8c3e92 Phooey, I missed the critiquing party. And @Emma-Flournoy, with her wonderful thoroughness, has pretty much read my mind on the subject of the second draft. XD So, yeah. Good job.

Oh, one thing: That first part, when Halle’s running from bad guys, and then wakes up in a castle. That confused me just a litte. Was running from bad guys a…[Read more]

Even though the topic has totally derailed, I’m still going to be contrary and pop in with a sentence about what was happening two pages ago.

Yay, @Kate-Flournoy and @Emma-Flournoy, that’s great! *explosions of glitter* 😀 Hey, what song did you do?

That’s amazing. I’m so glad it went well! @kate-flournoy

You sing? @emma-flournoy plays violin? You have an older sister named Elizabeth? Cool, cool, and cool. (I’ve always wanted to play violin…)

If you remember a while back, I requested prayer for the Easter offertory I and my sisters were going to play/sing for our church. I don’t remember who all responded (@Daeus @Ethryndal @ClaireC possibly?) but I just wanted to let you know that everything went off really well. I was incredibly nervous but it didn’t affect my voice at all, which is…[Read more]

@emma-flournoy Sawyer is the only one at the door (I’ll try and make that clearer). The word is definitely ‘prised’. Good points. Yeah, I need to get rid of those habits… 😛

Thank you so much @emma-flournoy Nope, I’m actally not sure. Sorry! My personality leans toward being more introverted. But, once I know someone super well, I’m not shy at all. 😉
