CHESTER IN THE FALL • Maybe now it's hitting me as all the leaves depart the trees that I won't be allowed to fall this year. #lyrics

FORESTS OF THE IMAGINATION • If we lose the real thing, will we still have forests of the imagination? One of the questions explored on the @bbcradio3 Sunday special last night. Available on iPlayer.

MY BARK • All the air is thin and cold, and all your songs are sounding old. #songlyrics

WHEN ALL THE LEAVES ARE FALLING • Elise is learning to play the guitar and to write songs at our sessions. At the moment, she's learned E and A chords, and we've written a melody for her to sing over a simple E/A chord progression. By the time we introduce a third chord, she'll be able to write a chorus! This method is working really well, as it's allowing her to learn to play and write very cumulatively and organically. It's also a little more interesting than spending hours practicing new chords/changes without being able to apply them.

6 year-old Vivienne started (and finished) her new song "Midnight Roses" this morning. At the moment, Vivienne is my youngest private songwriting student, and is one of the most enthusiastic! #itsnevertooyoungtostart

POST PRODUCTION • Getting a little help from Chris on a track I recorded last week at Kelsall Primary School. Mixing is NOT my favourite thing. I genuinely find it hard to understand how some people enjoy it. 🤔

INDIAN SUMMER • On an evening like this, who wants to be stuck inside? Today's songwriting sessions were held in my garden - the perfect setting for scribbling autumnal tunes. 🍁🍂

ORCHARD • Cozy feels at the studio this morning. Laughs and lots of outtakes. Experimenting with some new styles and exploring my voice. Also managed to drink a whole cup of tea . . . (can usually only manage a few sips). Always fun hanging with my producer pal Dan Logan.

PLACE | is a character in my story. A protagonist and a villain. A landscape says more about its people than the people concede themselves. I live in two places, and subconsciously (though sometimes self-consciously) become two people: I do not exist in isolation - without my oceans, meadows, snowdrifts, cobbled alleys, spires, woodsmoke, trees that can’t grow taller than high winds, trees that grow older than my country. . . . #livemusic #songwriting #songwriter #singersongwriter #landscape #poetry #nomanisanisland #girlwithguitar #girlboss #whereimfrom #home #moody #quote #inspirational #chester #cheshire #newfoundland #newfie #canada #canadianblogger #canadiansongwriter #inspiration #grey #whiteaddict #islander #tinyhouse #creativefreelancer #sciart .
