Hello 2026! FAWMer since 2008; she/her/Nord Electro 3/Pro Tools.

2026 will be: My first FAWM without a day job or a hustle trying to find one. My first FAWM co-habiting with another FAWMer. Also my first FAWM as Citizen and Netizen of a nuclear superpower whose federal government has been mostly-captured by techbro fascists. I will listen to every song marked #political that I have time for.

And, first FAWM since 2010 where I have album releases to promote!!

Let Me Drive The Van! All proceeds from Bandcamp track and album sales will be donated to Open Medicine Foundation: Supporting ME/CFS Research to find a cure for ME/CFS and Long COVID. Be a part of making history and help us find a cure to these life-altering illnesses. If you've enjoyed the post-punk, power-pop tunes that @toms and I have posted here over the years, check this out: it's our entire decade's worth of demos, and for a cause that's important to us both. Tracks are a dollar each, making it easy to donate any amount you like.

The Muse Ended It An Elaine DiMasi solo EP (with the help of some awesome people). Please enjoy! I figure FAWMers know how to rip a Bandcamp if they don't want to tip ;-)

AtFulcrum: Microviews This is @rickatfulcrum Rick Mealey's genius stuff, modestly labeled "prog-adjacent pop" in some marketing material or other, signed with Lux Intus Records. Find it at your accustomed streaming platforms, it's brilliant. I'd say this even if I didn't have a lyric co-write on track 6 from a 50/90 :-)

I'll hawk these a little harder in March, after I've listened to a bunch of YOU :-)

So, yeah. Retired from going for 14 in 28, but ready to rock. You?
