@jane-maree Your song is so…beautiful!  I love the chorus, most of all this line: Creator, Artist, Author, King.  Just making the connection between all of those attributes and characteristics through your song is so neat.

@dakota Nice going with your song, too!  It does remind me a bit of a hymn, and there’s a lot of truth packed into it…[Read more]

@dakota, that’s beautiful! I cant wait to see more of your stuff!

@dakota I love this!! Have you put it to music or anything yet?

This is one of my songs that I’ve written, I’m thinking about recording it at some point too. 😀 It’s called Be Still.

See the glory in the heavens, majesty proclaimed
Endless hallelujah, all the earth shouts His name
His handiwork declares his grace
Creation rises, singing…

@dakota That’s a pretty good method, really. The main thing is that you’re doing good as long as you’re actually moving forward–which some people really struggle with. 😉 It’s always good to experiment with different ideas anyway, even if you end up reverting back to your original style.

@dakota This is BEAUTIFUL! 😀

@dakota  That was great, thank you for sharing it with us! I agree with Evelyn, it would make a beautiful hymn.  How long have you been writing poetry? You’re quite good at it!

@dakota That’s so cool. I play guitar, flute, violin, ukulele, and piano! I really want to learn cello one day too. <3

Ooh yes, do tag me! I’d love to see it.

@dakota Welcome!! I’m so excited to have such a broad range of genre writers in this guild! Fantasy lovers, sci fi lovers, mysteries, and more! It’s the best. ^-^

I’ve written some songs!! They’re mostly worship songs, but I’d love to try my hand at soundtrack pieces one day. Do you play any musical instruments?

@dakota, Ooh! I need to look into those!

@dakota Ah! I’ve heard of Ed Dunlop! I have a series of Christian Mysteries on my list….something Blueberry I want to say…hmm.

@dakota, they’re awesome!! You really should read his books!

@dakota do you read Agatha Christie? I love her…

@dakota, I love mystery!! If you ever read fantasy, read Chuck Black. It’s more realistic and doesn’t have magic. I like it, though I’m not sure about other fantasy.
