Conventional wisdom has it that everyone who has ever endeavoured to be creative in something at sometime or other goes through a fallow period.  These past few months have been just that for me, and then some.  I should add that completing the CD release at the Yardbird Suite last spring released something else other than the CD.  

Some good friends of mine (who are also songwriters) who've gone through the CD release process many times told me it was normal to feel as though the wind had been taken completely from my sails. Becalmed, I believe is the correct nautical term. So I went on a spiritual retreat in May. I got into triathlon training.  I took my son for an all-round Alberta camping trip. I took another music theory course.  The weeks of non-creativity have now turned into months...

At this point, I haven't a clue what's next, nor do I pretend to have any control over the process.  So, that's my story, for what it's worth, and with that, I wish you all the best.

 With Love and Peace, Jay
