There are so many wonderful ways to tell a story and one of my favorites, songwriting is literally in my blood.  My great grandmother was a published songwriter scandalously playing piano in bars in the 1910's and 20's and she even had a band in old age that played out locally and was know as "The Grandma Band".   As a child we never had a television, but we always had a radio and some of my fondest memories are listening to Casey Kasem on America's Top 40, with my big sister, Stacy.  In my mid-twenties, I started playing in a band called WAXAPPLES and enjoyed modest success on an indie level. I am proud to say we released three full length albums on our own record label, Nadine Records, my first experiences with art direction and tackling big creative projects started there.   Next I dabbled in mixed media with an art project called Intersecting(LA) that was based on the idea that LA was a million different cities depending on which intersection you happened to find yourself at.  It included video, photography and a song for each of 10 different intersections, for which we release an album under the same name of Intersecting(LA) "LA Woman".  Most recently, as a solo artist, I covered Harry Styles "Sign Of The Times", with Derek O'Brien, Frank Agnew, Brian Coakley, and Warren Renfrow,  as promotion for my debut time travel novel "FREEHAND 2173" and I am so proud of how it turned out.  Although my focus these days is on novel writing, music and songwriting will always be a big part of who I am and how I find inspiration.
