Thank you, Chet! I appreciate your kind words. You just gave me the motivation I needed to get my new songs out there! Stay tuned....



Hi Donna--What a lyric, and what a delivery in your song, Harriet. I clicked on you when I read "edgy" folk and was surprised to see we have a song with the same title, Deep Down. Then I saw Harriet and was doubly-surprised since that's my given name. You were speaking to me in your song list. Terrific lyrics (Harriet) which would be impossible for many singers to deliver, but they roll right off your tongue. Wonderful chorus. For me, your vocals are reminiscent of Emmy Lou Harris, if you don't mind the comparison. She's recorded lots of edgy. All best, Hattie

Thank you, Hattie, or Harriet for this correspondence! I am so appreciative of your comments, especially today when I was hit with a moment of serious self doubt about getting back into playing, writing, and performing after a big bump in the road fighting breast cancer. I'm going to win, and I will get my groove back. THANK YOU for taking time to write these wonderful comments. You made such a difference for me today! And to be compared to Emmy Lou, well, I'm smiling. Best to you, Hattie. Take care, Donna
