Record Numbers

Looking at website stats again, I see that September 2023 has been my busiest month to date on both this blog and my Zach-of-All-Trades blog. That makes me smile. The former has received over 6500 hits so far, and the latter is at over 2700. While this may not seem like much to some, it totally amazes me, especially since I haven't been very good about adding any new content lately. In any case, thank you for reading my stuff and for checking out my music. You are, above all else, the reason that I do it... whoever you are.

Although I have chosen not to monetize these blogs in any way, knowing that there are people reading my work and listening to my music makes it all seem worthwhile. That said, if you would like to financially support my various creative endeavors, for now, the best way to do so would be to buy my songs wherever you listen. Whereas streaming pays a fraction of a cent per play, purchasing the songs or albums for download adds up a lot faster... and since I write, perform and produce it all myself, more of the proceeds go directly to me, which in turn allows me to keep doing what I'm doing. 

To that end, I'm currently trying to record another album, but it seems that my eleven-year-old laptop is not really up to the challenge anymore. It has gotten very slow. As such, I intend for any revenue generated through song and album sales to be put toward replacing it so that I can keep recording, producing album number seven and beyond. Every little bit helps. And if you can't afford to buy my songs, that's fine, too. I'm still happy that you're listening to and reading my work. I encourage you to share it and add my music to your playlists, too, as this helps it to find an audience.  

Thank you, dear listener and reader. Your support is greatly appreciated.
