This was an interesting week for sure. I went down to Nashville again to write a couple more songs and record the new radio single “Life Not Typical” which will be released in January.
First, though, when I got there on Tuesday, I presented my new book Life Not Typical: How Special Needs Parenting Changed My Faith and My Song to the sales conference for STL, my distributor. The book will go out nationwide in January, and this was my opportunity to let the people from STL know more about me and my book so they can get it in the hands of the bookstores. Really nice people, and it went well.
Afterward I wrote a few songs with Paul Marino, and we also recorded the lead vocals for the new single. We started a lot later than we meant to, and thought we’d finish it the next day, but we were getting a great vibe, so we were still working at 1:30 in the morning. I’m excited to hear the finished product – it’s always fun to hear something in your head start to come together! Then I got up and drove home. Very tired, but feeling good about it, and ready to tackle Christmas music at church!
