Hey, all! Haven't posted on here in a while but I have some exciting news about #Sentinel2650 After writing 25 chapters, I'm at a resting point in the story. Since I've gotten a lot of feedback on what I've written already, I decided to act on it. Part 1, Draft 2 is done... and it's way longer!
Hey all! I know I haven't been posting here regularly but a lot has been happening with me. Here's my latest news: I got commissioned by a colleague to write a piece for him and I finished it less than a day after he made the downpayment!
Best landing in a long time... and it was at the end of a my pattern practice on Juneteenth! 🛬😀
Heya folks! Here's a little timeline cleanse... I'm still here, working on my SciFi novel that I WILL publish one way or another. And I'm finishing out my performing season in Mobile, playing Ravel's "La Valse!" 🎵 Also, I'm getting my space legs back in Star Citizen! LOVE 4.1.1 with the Idris! 🚀
Here we go! PSO's 99th Season Finale with Berlioz "Le Corsaire" Overture, Saint-Saens Piano Concerto #2, and Dvorak 6 to finish things out!
Getting ready for the big NFSO Season Finale! 🎵🎵🎵 #Music #Symphony #Oboe #SeasonFinale #Beethoven
Post about the success of one of your students, and you get some pretty remarkable validation...
Some more of my highlights from playing "The Marriage of Figaro" this weekend. First: Wolfy's woodwind writing, in general, is just exquisite! #Music #Opera #Pensacola #Figaro #Oboe
All right! The gang's all here, the weather's improving, my reeds are (mostly) stabilized, and I'm situated and ready for Opening Night! Let get this Spanish barber married! 🎵🎵🎵 #Opera #Pensacola #Figaro #Mozart #Oboe
Keeping to the adage of, "The Show Must Go On," Pensacola Opera, with a skeleton crew orchestra (most of the winds but a bare handful of strings), is going to have a dress rehearsal in five minutes. Wish us luck! 🥶 #opera #music #PensacolaBlizzard

Yeah... surely Jeff could afford his own plane on his salary. I mean, I'm a regional musician and got one without leeching off a police department. Oh... wait... I bet he felt entitles to bells and whistles, didn't he? I bet he doesn't fly it himself, either. Hmmm...
The bridge of the U.S.S. Sentinel... rudimentary plan view by me! It's going to be 3D rendered by Jim Zane aka JazAero and, from there, @runesael.bsky.social will be able to insert characters into some scenes! #Story #Space #SciFi #WIP #Sentinel2650
For the ignorami like me who was about to ask Sandi to explain the term but then realized, "It's MY job to learn stuff, not make others do the legwork."
Hey, "Zoe?" Do you have a split personailty? Sometimes you're outgoing Sometimes you're shy Sometimes you're a poet Sometimes you're an explorer But you'll always a sparkle-loving romcom binge-watcher. Ain't it so, "Zoe?" (These lyrics are copyrighted by me. I might just set this to music. 😉😆)
Wow! It took me over 10 years on the Other Platform to get to #1000Followers! (And due to the exodus, that number has dwindled a good bit) I like it here! 😀 I'll do my best to post more #entertaining stuff... including more #book teasers with the help of my #artist friend!
