One year ago, November 1, 2023, at All Saints church on All Saints Day, I told a friend that I had invented a new musical instrument for mobile devices, asking for any advice on what to do next.
Another member of the congregation overheard: “I head on the CBC the U of M has a legal clinic for artists.”
Even though I’m a non Christian, I know enough that when God sends you a sign, you best not ignore it!
There’s a lot of waiting involved, but when things happen… cyclonic!
[Shout out: thanks to all the many people I met this year who offered words of wisdom & advice. I have done my best to follow all the good advice I have received. Please forgive my uncurbed enthusiasm. Thanks with being patient with this upstart fanatic!]
