Welcome! I hope you enjoy it here!

And I fail to see how having lived in both China and Colorado is boring. 😛

Welcome! And if you’ve been to the last three Oyan workshops, does that mean we were at the same one? Ordinary Heroes?

I just got started by messing around on my keyboard, and I just kept what I thought sounded good. Since then, I’ve learned a little more about chords and scales. If you have a…[Read more]

I use Cubase, although it’s not free. There are bunch of things out there, but if you’re looking for free, then it sounds like Sarah knows what she is talking about.

Should You Include Cussing in Your Story?

And Jesus turned water into wine, so Jesus didn’t have anything against drinking.

Okay, that makes sense. I never thought of them in that category before.
