(Shawn) I'm writing a few more duets for the publisher. I hope they like all of them LOL Sat, 02 Apr 2011 00:46:42 EST http://www.soundclick.com/members/default.cfm?member=Shawn%2E&content=myBlogs&id=87956 http://www.soundclick.com/members/default.cfm?member=Shawn%2E&content=myBlogs&id=85342 Shawn. (Shawn) I wrote that this afternoon at Borders, which is my favorite place to drink coffee and write. I had a guy on my mind, a writer, a sweetheart. Felt so good to move on that romantic impulse, something I don't usually do. As an artistic type individual I tend to fall to fast, too hard, too much and lose everything every time. Well, not this go around. But I wanted to write something for him.

(Shawn) Its a new month, tomorrow is my Bro's birthday (happy birthday!!) and I am trying to keep focused on my journey ahead. As I have mentioned before, I am getting a piece published by Broadbent&Dunn, Ltd. in England and since this is the first time I have ever gone through this process I did not know what to expect. It turns out, after a few emails, that it is a longer process than I had anticipated. The cool thing is that I made getting published a goal back in Jun and here it is happening! Al...

(Shawn) Well my piece Psyche did not win the competition (that is why I have now posted it here on soundclick.)... It's ok tho because I have already started working on the next competition piece! Please give it a listen anyway :) I still like it.

(Shawn) So I have heard back from the publisher and they will be publishing my clarinet duet, which I used to have posted up on here. I am pretty excited! Got that piece into the competition in Finland, waiting to hear back next month. Looking into a few other competitions, but really publishing is my next move. The publisher has asked for more! I am going to go through all the steps with them first before I just send them everything I have. Anyway, best of luck in this new year to all of you crea...

(Shawn) So I finished my piece for solo euphonium which will be entered into a competition. I love this piece! I need a title for it tho. Anyway, I'll post it after I hear from the competition.

(Shawn) Yes, so it's a great time to reflect on what I'm doing. Sharing my world through sound and music is not just a hobby or something interesting to play around with, it is my life. It has been forever and I am gaining the tools necessary to make it my sole source of income. I mean, I do already teach others, but I want to pursue my career as a composer/performer. That said, I still want to get some students for online study, let me know! This is the year I get published!! And I'm going to ente...

(Shawn) Writing and writing... waitiing and waiting... I am reworking a piece, something I never do LOL, but I found an old score that I want to finish. Should be fun ;) Still waiting for the publishers to write back. Anyway, check out my page! srmeloystudio.com Mon, 11 Oct 2010 11:23:23 EST http://www.soundclick.com/members/default.cfm?member=Shawn%2E&content=myBlogs&id=78552 http://www.soundclick.com/members/default.cfm?member=Shawn%2E&content=myBlogs&id=73448 Shawn. (Shawn) So I'm determined that this is the year that I get refocused on my goal, my purpose. I am currently working on a recital of my music to be played in the Fall. From that, I intend to springboard into composing for a living. I will be published, I will be heard!
