It's been a while since I posted. I made some progress on guitar. I now have three guitars, the entry level Enya Go, a mid level Ibanez, the third is a Taylor GS Mini.
My original song Winter Dreamland is quite a bit better than my song Kindness of a Stranger a year earlier.
I am in the slow learner category. Many three month beginners can do more than I can at 21 months. I am enjoying the journey and enjoy what I can do. Certain skills such as lyric writing and arranging, are well developed from my many years on other instruments.
I participated in February Album Writing Month 2026. Mostly I did skirmishes. These are one hour songwriting prompts with an unofficial deadline of one hour to write and record. I am still very much a beginner on guitar, so little chance I can record in that time frame. I did try and complete the lyrics in the hour. I found some remarkably deep lyrics from seemingly random prompts.
A few more that I like:

Action not Words (Acta non Verba)
