<p>Hi there, and welcome back!  I also sometimes disappear, but then sneak back on occasion to see what&#8217;s up.  I look forward to seeing you around!</p>

<p>And don&#8217;t you love My Love Has Gone Across the Sea? I almost cried first time I heard it, even though I hadn&#8217;t read The Monster in the Hollows yet. I don&#8217;t know how the Petersons do it, but they do.</p>

Personality test just like MBTI, and just as good imo. Nailed me just as much, at least (4w5 + INFP ftw). Also&#8230; Sleeping at Last made an album about, which is now one of my favorite albums of all time, so. XD</p>
<p>I&#8217;m trying to pursue it this way, haha!</p>
<p>And I see. Very interesting. Hope it goes well for you. 🙂</p>

<p>Mmm, probably. Might need to do that then. I&#8217;ve really just been winging it in my mind&#8211;like always, heh&#8211;and it&#8217;s worked out so far. I think. XD</p>
<p>Define &#8220;normal&#8221; singing; and why can&#8217;t you sing that way&#8211;if you don&#8217;t mind me asking.</p>

Guitar (and drums!) are also classic foundations. But I have no training or skill in any instrumental area, so I just hope I can find and learn some online program&#8211;and/or friends who might be willing to contribute. XD</p>

<p>I&#8217;m not big on genre, whether listening or writing. 😀</p>
<p>I just&#8230; write it, as it comes. Naturally. And hope it works out. &#8220;Write with a rhythm, sing with a tune.&#8221;</p>
<p>And that&#8217;s awesome! You have the part I lack the most&#8211;the gift of singing. XD</p>

<p>All I do anymore is songwriting. I&#8217;ve finished one album so far, and I&#8217;m working on my second! I also wrote one separately&#8211;so I guess it&#8217;s a single? I&#8217;m still looking at ways to try and make them <em>real </em>songs, though.</p>
