Tone Poem Tuesday
I had a piece picked out for this week, but it’s a pretty complex work that I want to hear a couple more times before I actually feature it, so this week I’ll take an “easy” route. This is a … Continue reading
Testing the new gizmo!
I’m writing this on my new tablet, because my backordered keyboard folio finally came in. Huzzah! Now to begin my plan for World Domination…or, on a smaller scale, using this tablet as a content-creation device (blog posts, essays, maybe short … Continue reading
The Moment
Obviously there is zero chance that I will vote for anybody other than Joe Biden this November (or October, really–early voting, here I come!), but I do want to highlight this segment of his acceptance speech last night. How strange … Continue reading

I like the sound of that. Let’s go, Joe!
Tone Poem Tuesday
William Grant Still is not new to this series, but the goal is to highlight music as well as composers, and to just hear one work by a composer and then move on forever seems…well, weird, doesn’t it? So let’s … Continue reading
An Addendum…
…to yesterday’s post about my new tablet! Given that I want to use that device primarily as a secondary writing device for longer-form work, I will not be keeping any social networking apps on it at all, with the exceptions … Continue reading
