Progress.
For those that don’t know, aside from my music career, I also write.
And this exact minute is an exciting time for me, because I just counted and realized that I have 70+ poems ready for my next book.
This is exciting for me, why? Well, my first book (which was also a poetry book) only consisted of 44 poems (and 12 lyrical sets) which came out to be 96 pages total. One of my goals for my...
