Big news folks! I am officially a copyright holder! Getting to this point feels like too exactly forever.
I submitted the album to be copyrighted in January, and it was not until April that I got noticed that it was copyrighted. That was a lot of kind of just sitting on hands and waiting. Luckily, I had school to keep me busy but now summer is here and I am ready to start moving towards releasing it.
It is kind of scary to think that I am going to release this body of work into the world. I wonder if I am ready for the commentary that will come with doing so. At the same time, I was writing and working on the album nearly a year ago. I am just as removed from the songs themselves, as I am the person I was when I wrote them.
They still resonate with me, and they are still a part of me. But in other ways, I grown up, moved on, and lived some life since I wrote them. I guess what I am saying is, although I don’t think I could truly ever prepare for really harsh criticism on my music. I am to a point now with this album where I can take some criticism and commentary, and look at it objectively will out taking the whole experience too personally.
This all just a long winded way of saying, the album is copyrighted and I can’t wait for you to hear it.
More details as we got closer to October 22.
