And the winner is...

Well, the results are in! Check out www.fromheretotheworld.org to see how I placed in this years' Songwriting Competition...you should be able to hear the song by clicking on the link too. Sending this song in was a bit like flogging a dead horse...I recorded it ages ago but I really wanted to win the $1500 worth of studio time. Many thanks to the judges for the honourable mention!!

From Here to the World...

Howdy Folks...

Well, my big news is out. I have been nominated as one of the top 30 songs to represent my region in the "From Here to the World" songwriting competition. I submitted a song that I wrote a little while back called "Home"...so we are all keeping everything crossed for the Finals.

Check out www.escapeartistmedia.com for the results...they should be on there tomorrow sometime!

In other news, life is good. It's still raining cats & dogs here though...didn't I just leave the rainiest place on earth to move to sunny Kelowna??? Oh well, at least it makes everything green!

It's late so I digress for now...big love to you all! HB :)

Autumn Rain...


I'm feeling rather melancholy today, maybe it's midweek slump, roll on weekend I say!!! You know the kind of day where you just want to pull the duvet over your head and stay there all huddled up in the warmth. Today is definately one of those days...puts me in mind of a hot chocolate smothered with whipped cream and drizzled in chocolate...ugh! I've got it bad!

Well, I can't help it really...it's raining outside, although actually I quite like the rain (I know I need my head examined right) but it makes everything feel cozy. Apparently we are in for a very cold winter...lots of the white stuff which the snowboarders are totallly "stoked" about. It was cool to see the snow again last year although it only stuck around for a few weeks or so.

Spring and Fall are actually my fave times of year...I made my abrupt entrance into this weird and wonderful planet in the Spring (so that gets my vote by default) and the Fall makes me feel like wrapping up in front of a blazing log fire...hot chocolate in hand of course, and hhhmmm! Brad Pitt wouldn't go amiss either...hey! I can dream!!

Well, I guess I should jolt myself back to reality...time waits for no man, don't put off until tomorrow what could be done today, blah-blah-blah...I want my duvet!!! At least us Canucks have a long weekend to look forward to...Happy Thanksgiving!!!
