I'm sitting at my desk, littered with coffee cups, Christmas cards, (thank you!), and TONS of CD's and EPK submissions to listen to. The first of the year is bringing me more production opportunities than I would have ever imagined possible. Logan is online with the epk stuff (electronic press kits -- pretty cool, check out www.sonicbids.com), and I am listening to 3 Left Standing, The Googe, Liz Pappademas, Kendall Triplett, Val Holler, and Sound Breaking Ground.

I am in the middle of editing Sarah Sharp's vocals in prep. for next weeks mix-fest. While I have been working, Kevin Ryan has reinvented himself (yet again) to become our CD title, and graphic imagery guru. It is just SO handy having a renaissance guy hanging around. Kevin and Sarah have been shopping around for mastering opportunities.

My plans for the week are to finish my edits and load in the final tracks that Kevin has been tweaking.

On a different note, my brother Bill Workman took me flying in his new plane, a Cirrus SR-22 for you propeller heads, on Christmas Eve. This turned out to be my coolest and certainly most spontaneous Christmas present. We flew over Houston and I almost was able to see my own house in the Heights, but at the last minute, Bill requested a photo of the downtown skyline, so he's going to have to take me up again so I can spot it.
