Disappointments. We all have disappointments in life. If you don't like dealing with disappointment, I wouldn't encourage you to be a songwriter. I entered a four songs in the Walnut Valley Festival- New Song Contest. I was zero for four on songs this year. I also entered three songs in the Bluebird Café Play for Publishers contest. I was not selected. Both of these happened in the last week.
I did have a positive thing happen this week. I sent a song and the lyrics to Mike Hannah at Farmer's Turnpike radio show in Lawrence, Ks. He liked my song called Picker's Paradise and emailed me that he would try to play my song on the radio. I listened to his program but did not hear my song. Of course, I had to work two and a half hours of the four hour program and needed to go to bed to get up early the next morning. It would of been fun to hear my song on the radio.Who knows? Maybe next week. Try, try again.
