A Memory

A Villanelle For The Vocal "This Is How I Remember It" Challenge

By Mike Singleton πŸ’œ Mikeydred Published 7 months ago β€’ 1 min read
A Nightcafe Creation By The Author

Introduction

This is Vocal-related about the moment when someone gave me the belief that my writing had value to others. It was not my first Top Story, it was something else that has stayed with me since that moment and will stay with me forever.

It is something I have written about before, and if you know, then you know.

The music is, appropriately, "Memories" by Robert Wyatt.
