Hi everyone - Here we are again!
This year marks my 10th anniversary with FAWM! Joining was one of the best things I've ever done!
I've been a bit "lazy" this FAWM - not playing instruments, except for the uke on one song, and instead relying on my garageband app. I'm more concerned with writing a song - a sketch of one, if you will - than an arrangement or playing guitar or piano

Thanks for the listens and comments on my songs. It's been a great FAWM and hope you had a wonderful time with it too.
Congrats on your trophy!
We have music up now for โBlood On Your Lips!โ
Thanks for reading 'Morning Moon'. At first I thought, "Hey that's just poetry." But then I thought about the Moody Blues, cold-hearted orb and all that, and I decided it *might* fit into a song. Anyway, it's really wonderful to have someone witness what comes out, and to be so welcoming of it. Thank you!
Thank you for being encouraging! My husband is very close to laying down tracks for my songs, so the lyrics will have their music before the deadline I hope ๐
I just have to thank you for pointing me in the direction of Pentangle. I was not aware of them, and I've been really enjoying listening to their Hunting Song on YouTube a few times since your comment. Loving it!
I wish I could be with you guys at 3:00 for your skirmish. Once a month I have an all day Sunday conflict, and this is that time, sadly.
Hi! I just revisited Little Lagoon to see what I actually said. I neglected to say that I find the lyrics very charming too, and love imagining the scene of you there. The synths just seem of a whole other mood than the lyrics. Perhaps you have 2 songs going there? ๐
Hi Corinne! You'll need to create your skirmish post. Here is the info for your slot. Thanks!!
SKIRMISH #: SS2425-L
HOST:
EST: Sunday, February 25, 2018 3pm EST
Hi Corinne! We are running a Mega Super Skirmish here on the last FAWM weekend and the last slot happens to coincide with your regular Sunday skirmish. Would you like to take this slot or do you prefer to run your skirmish separately? I'l reserve it for you until I hear from you!!

Thanks for your comments on my tracks, they meant a lot <3
Thanks so much for your lovely comment on my "Winter River" skirmish song. It was a great skirmish - so many interesting and varied songs came out of it! Thanks for the prompt.
Hi thanks, it did inspired me, thank you for hosting and for choosing such a great title and also giving the option to choose loosely.
thanks for doing today's skirmish, and the inspiring prompt. got me out of Park.
Thanks so much for your comment on Winter River! Hope to do music soon!
Oh no, you got me, maybe it was me! Or my ears since I was listening. ๐๐
Cool! Beautiful shot!
Party on! Never to late! Nice soundboard picture but I think it is not Brooklyn!
Thanks for the nudge, Corinne. I thought I had it in there, with an asterisk before the number, but it doesn't work. Am I in the wrong universe??
Hi Corinne, thank you so much for the inspiration and for your kind comment on my lyrics submission on your brilliant skirmish. Sorry I just took the idea of running without any football...
Hey, thanks for the comments and feedback on my song Gone Away!
Hi, C! Thanks for commenting on "Face-to-Face"; I might still give it music. We'll see. More likely, I will be having too much fun doing things like your Sunday skirmish to look back. Such is FAWM. Use it, or wave bye-bye; this boat's wake is pretty strong!
Thanks for the comments on my swan song. If only everything was as beautful as the swan.
Hey there, you're not so shabby yourself! I'm trying not to procrastinate on there too much when I should be writing my songs, and then going around and listening this month, but it's so tempting! See you here, and probably there too. *:-)*
Welcome back! Any chance you'll be running skirmishes this year? I always enjoy your prompts.
Hallooooo! Happy to see you're here, and what a milestone!! To best things ever! *clink*
Hi Corinne!! Can't wait to hear your creations!
Hi Corinne. Looks like weโre both here again. Happy FAWM.
Happy 10th! Thatโs a great milestone! Looking forward to hearing your music this year.
Fancy seeing you here!
Hi Corinne, happy fawm-iversary!!
Hey Corinne ๐ Lets do this!
