6th May – The war is over

6^th May – The war is over

There are no more words to write for another 5 months now. No more group meetings, no performances to plan, no places to go or things to do. The battle of the assignments has been won, but not without its cost. For I say that unless the battle takes something out of you, be it sleep, health or part of your sanity. The assignment hasn’t tested you, and that’s what they are meant to do.

Another short war will be fought in the coming days too. The war to beat the deadline, as if in reprisal of all that has just gone (and especially the last two crazy weeks), begins again. Crinkle Is Crayz is due for release, long overdue if you ask me. I remember in January I thought I was a month from finishing it, then real life happened.

Though most songs are done, and some just need vocals re-recording, there’s a large 18 minute monster on the end which neeeeeeeeds to be finished. A symphonic opus and quite a dark track, but one who’s ending always fulfils promise.

After Saturday then? What happens next? Only time will tell, but I am greatly looking forward to writing on a blank canvas!
