SHOP CLOSED
I have officially closed the shop for now and at the moment I have no plans to reopen. That can
always change so be on the look out. My apologies to those who didn't get their orders in in time.
It was a very rewarding experience and I'm glad I did it. Judging from the comments below, those
who participated agree. Several people have posted links to their songs if you're interested in hearing.
Thanks. Until next time, Val

As some of you may know, I welcome fan questions over at Tumblr and someone recently asked me
if I'd be open to doing a song shop. I had no idea what this was, so I did what any man with
opposable thumbs would do; I googled song shop. Here's what it is: I, the artist, write you,
the fan, a personalized song. At first I was skeptical. I'm an artist, not a whore, I said to myself.
But the more I thought about it, the pretention faded & I began to fall in love with the idea.
What excited me most was the possibility of a deeper connection with my listeners. Writing songs
is what I do and I'd love nothing more than to share that experience with you. I can't think of a better
way to create a unique one-of-a-kind experience with you than through this process. And perhaps for my
foreign fans it might make up for my inability to travel abroad to play live for you in person.
So, I'm opening up my very own Song Shop. Here's what you do.
Click on the BUY NOW link below and then send me a paragraph or two about what you want your song to be
about. Tell me about any issue/problem/idea that you (or a loved one) are currently grappling
with. Tell me about something you like to do or something you don't like to do. Anything that consumes
you. It can be serious, funny or trivial. Just make it honest & be specific. I'll then take your material and
send you back an MP3 of a full-length acoustic song. I promise that each song will be unique and
made especially for you. I'll even name it after you or whoever you're sending it to.
Buy a song for ... ... a loved one for the holiday.
... a birthday gift.
... a get-well gesture.
... yourself just 'cuz you feel like it.
... just to see if I can pull it off!
