Here's a very brief pop tease. These are the opening paragraphs of my contribution to a project due out later this year. It's not my project; I had a (very!) incidental role in its genesis, but otherwise I was just brought in to add some words to the project's package. Let's have a quick look at the first few of those pretty words:
"The kid heard a song on the radio.
"The kid liked the song. The kid liked the song a lot. A few days later, the kid saw a band play that song on TV. The kid was twice entertained by them: right then, and again in the second part of the show.
"Inspiration.
"The kid got a guitar, or some drums, or whatever. The kid's path was illuminated by bright lights. Music? Yes. Let's make music. Let's make music right now!"
And for now, that's all you're gettin'. Details to follow, probably in the fall. It's gonna be worth the wait.
