Long-time no blog, well in regard to this blog anyway.
For my audience that follows my blog as opposed to my Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn pages, I am letting you know that I finally have a Soundcloud page! Yep, I've jumped on that bandwagon and it's well overdue I agree as Spoken Word is where a lot of my work is at. However, it was not a priority as it just adds to the workload in my preoccupied opinion. I was also concerned that having a collection of my audio online (for free no less) may prevent listeners from being encouraged to see and hear me perform in person (which is NOT THE ONE) and I was worried about having certain recorded poems on my Soundcloud that I'd like to reserve for the audio CD of my current poetry book as well as my upcoming book. These are all valid reasons- not an excuse, either way my case is rested and I catered for my audience with another profile for some accessible media.
Bear in mind that there is only one recording uploaded so far BUT it does include 3-5 of my poems throughout the hour's recording taken from my appearance on Poet's Anonymous this year. In a way it is like having 5 uploaded tracks I'd like to think. When I have more, I will give more, all within due time (there is so much going on creatively at the moment). Take a listen, follow and enjoy in the meantime ;-)
FYI; that picture of me that I edited into the logo to complement this blog post nicely, is one of my favourite pics ever by the way. It was from one of my previous birthdays when I went to Paris and Morocco in the same week. Definitely a vanity moment that was if I do say so myself, my cream outfit was so on point! The matching gloves which I have since lost, those sickkkk boots that I adored and still own ahh....it's no wonder I was given the name 'Diva,' just saying.
As I toot my own horn and create more media for you to go across my profile pages that now include a Soundcloud (smiling), I wish you a fantastic day my lovelies ;-)
