Last month I posted that I’d contact some more demo studios for connections with our members which I did! I’m in contact with several right now. If you have a demo studio you love, let me know and I’ll be happy to contact them also. This month, one of my smaller goals is to add those studios to our one-click demo connection (found in the Song Locker area). Also I want to work on updating one of my “live” courses (thinking “Writing From the Heart”) for best use on the new improved site.
