My Muse
I come from a family of musicians. My mother is a professionally train choir singer and my dad can play guitar and sing pretty decently as well despite lack of training. My grandfather from my mothers side had a local band that would perform and win every "battle of the bands" contest they entered. My grandfather from my father's side can play guitar and accordion while missing a thumb, he can hold the guitar pick with the nub where his thumb used to be, its quite impressive to see. Then there's me, the guy with the passion for writing with nothing to write about, and a love for singing who was bullied so hard in school he never sang for fear of drawing more attention to himself. For the longest time I have been nervous about singing. I've told myself I'm not good enough, that my mid range is garbage, I high range is barely passable and my low range has no control so it feels almost monotone. I also used to write poetry but I hadn't been inspired by anything in a very long time. Then I meet my girlfriend.

My Badass Mom
Where do I even begin with my mother? First and foremost I am thankful for my mom having a good relationship with my father despite being divorced. They are still friends and both have a mutual understanding that their kids come first and too often do i hear about how that isn't the case in divorces.
