The Surviving Spirit Newsletter March 2021



Hi Folks,



Spring is here and that has brought some much-needed energy and hope for new beginnings after this very long winter of Covid 19 and all that it entails. I hope we are starting to see daylight at the end of this tunnel.



I was grateful to be a part of a Survivor Stories event hosted by Michael Broussard of Ask a Survivor. I'm performing two songs of mine and sharing the back story about their creation - "Songs For The Keys To Your Life"and "When Your Heart Follows A Lie"...



Survivor Stories with Michael Skinner – YouTube 21:15 minutes
