A Special Song + An Announcement!

                                 

Songwriting is an art. Just like forms of painting, songwriting can be a way of releasing your feelings so that others can feel your feelings too.

Well, I have some strong feelings right about now. If you've noticed I haven't posted the last few weeks, (congrats on noticing that.... I was only gone like twice) It's because I haven't felt the upbeat vibe blogging usually comes with.

Someone very close to me (as in, a grandfather figure in my life), by the name of Paul Westphal, was recently diagnosed with stage four brain cancer. I was shocked. I'm still a little shocked. 
 I didn't know what to do, so I just wrote. A song. And that is what this post is about. 

I've released my first studio-recorded song, and I'm so happy! I want to share that song with you. It is very special to me, because it is dedicated to Paul Westphal (or Westy, as I call him). 

You can just click this link. Right here, right now. It would mean so much to me. Thanks!

Anyway, with all that said, I will be getting back into the weekly posting, every Wednesday, and I will do my best to continue to bring boredom busters, crafts, and everything else included in TQC straight to your inbox.
