Hi. I am a song writer and am looking for someone who might like to record some of the songs I have written. I have gospel songs as well as country. If you give me an idea of what you would like, I can sit down and write you a song in just a short time. I have sent out cassettes to people I have met on the internet with songs I wrote for anniversaries, for birthday presents and just for fun. If you would like me to write you a song, you can email me @ waathena@yahoo.com. Say :Write me a song: so I know it is from soundclick and I will get back with you about details for the song ok. My problem is that my songs are acapello and I would love it if the songs I write were actually recorded by a real band, instead of just me singing and using my keyboard. It's ok for small gifts and just for fun, but isn't really professional sounding.

I was born in Upper Sandusky, Ohio and was raised all over the United States, traveling with my father, who was a professional horse trainer and who followed the rodeo circuit for years doing expeditions training horses in rodeo arenas during breaks at rodeo events. My family and I were raised on horse back and I wrote songs as a child, and I still do, just for fun. I am now married, have 3 children of my own and 2 grand children.

I sing just for family and friends and occasionally at church.

Dolly Paron, Martina McBride, Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, George Jones, I love anybody with a great story in song and who has a great voice and songs in general, all kinds of music.

I hope someone would like some of my songs and want to hear more or record something I wrote;
