    Playing on the radio, playing on the porch

    This morning I got up early and played two songs on WVBR in Ithaca, then headed downtown to play Porchfest solo. Gorgeous weather, music everywhere.

    I don't think the backers who pushed my campaign over the $5,000 line yesterday necessarily knew it was my birthday. What an incredible thing. I can get melancholy in the fall--September is so beautiful and then everything starts to freeze up and it can feel freaky. But seeing that number keep on climbing, especially this last week, has made me want to run full tilt into wintertime. Any more that is raised in the next few days will give us breathing room in the studio and (perhaps) a wider palette. But the bones of finishing this record-- booking studio time, listening to mixes, agonizing over the sequence and artwork... it is suddenly possible and feels altogether thrilling.

    Thank you so much.

    I'll keep sending out updates, if you don't mind, so you can feel the ownership over this project you all deserve.

    Again, so gratefully,

    Bronwen
