Hi! My name is Erin and I just joined the Steemit community yesterday. I'm still trying to figure out how all of this works, but here goes my first post!
I live in south FL most of the year with my husband, @negativer, and my two kitties, Shoga and Futo. For the summer months and a few weeks in December, we make the trek to WI where we lived for 17 years to be closer to family and friends and get out of the FL heat.
I am an opera singer, classical pianist, composer, and teacher. I love classical music, but I also love to sing and play keyboard at my church band. As you can see, music occupies a big part of my life!
It hasn't always been easy to live as a musician, and it's certainly not something you do if you want to make money. But I thank God I can do what I love and that's what matters.
There are lots of things I've learned about music and myself along the way, and I really just want to share that with others and hope that it helps them through a particular struggle they're having. If someone else can learn from my mistakes, then that adds even more value to them, right? I think that's part of the reason why God lets us go through the valleys, so we can come alongside someone else and share their burden with them.
Thanks for upvoting and following me! Watch for my posts on playing piano and singing, kitties and life!
Here's a gratuitous kitty pic:
