Pre-nap ramble
🕑 Added 2020-08-13 15:45:32 +0000 UTCHello all!
I thought I'd update you on my week so far, as it's been super jam-packed and I'm so exhausted that I need to go for a nap. Whenever I get tired, I get talkative - and then, out of nowhere, the Big S (that's what I call that overwhelming heavy feeling) takes over and boom, I'm gone for hours.
The reason I haven't been able to film any content for my YouTube channel this week is because I've been busy with recording a TON of music - some of which you should be getting extremely soon (as in the end of the month/beginning of next month) in time for the Villains anniversary, and some that you may not hear for quite some time. It'll be worth the wait, though...
My cover of How Soon Is Now? by The Smiths is sounding unbelievable - I truly think you're all going to love it, especially if you're a fan of my heavier work. The other two original songs are coming along great too. Once I've finished these, I'll have four new songs in the bank... just a few more to go after that ;) what's it all for...? Who's to say...
Anyway, the recordings have meant early mornings, long travel times and tons of singing. I'm on vocal rest today before returning to the home studio setup tomorrow to finish off the Villains anniversary project. Hopefully I'll be back to filming more content next week. I hate not having a video ready to go - I feel as though I've been on a real roll recently with uploads, and to already have to take a week out is frustrating. It'll all be worth it though, and I'm certainly not going anywhere. I'm loving the praise for the recent Sims content on my channel, and can't wait to film more for you all. I can't begin to tell you just how much that letting go of the concept of "musicians can't also be vloggers/comedians/gamers/etc" has freed my mind to new ideas. I'm so inspired at the moment and I haven't felt this kind of drive for a while.
Well, that's me all typed out. I still have a couple of guitar tutorials to edit, and a Feel Good 101 series to start, and video requests to film... it's all a bit hectic at the moment but it'll all come in due time. You've just gotta trust the process, my dudes.
I hope you're all coping in this UK heatwave (it's cooled down here in Birmingham and way less humid than yesterday!) and you're all staying safe and well. Time for a nap! Ah, chronic fatigue, how I dislike thee...
Catch you all soon,
Emma

Get some rest and (hopefully) you'll have the energy soon. I agree, Birmingham, (or at least Sutton Coldfield), has been baking hot. Did you see those thunderstorms? Great photo opportunities those nights.

It’s more of reacting to my own book, but yeah!

Woo! Feel Good 101 is alive again!

Sounds great, Emma! I'm psyched to hear you sing How Soon Is Now? and looking forward to your projects being completed. I love hearing Feel Good 101 is alive and well, too. Sweet dreams! :) <3
