Hey Donna,

I just saw this today and had forgotten we had talked about it. I was interested in how it had turned out. I hope they do pitch it for you, but what I know about Nashville now and the up and coming artists, not to mention the established ones, getting a song they are not writers on now, is next to impossible. We've just passed into another era. From the "era of the song" to the "era of Celebrity.:" Since few songs are really making money anymore, and given a choice between what an outsider writes and what an artist themselves are involved in, it's sort of like telling all those endless kids on cell phones constantly, "put down the phone and quit getting all your information, putting all your selfies on, and listen to us other people..." Just not something they are any longer interested in.
A thing that I've seen over the past 10-20 years is the dissapearance of songwriters and outside songs. I was warned about this in 1988, and man has it ever come true.

So a thing that I've always mentioned to you and any one interested in doing this...FIND YOUR OWN ARTISTS. That is really the only option now. And they are all around you, I'm sure tonight in some bar or resturant in your area, is someone on a stage playing their songs. Your job is to get out and meet them, and show them how songs should be written.

But always glad you are still at it. As usual, I'm not leaving any BONES, but just a few facts that have finally landed.
