The Life of Glory

It has begun. Kelly Ann Miller - EP is on iTunes, CDbaby.com, Amazon and other digital stores. You can go to my website and purchase it and soon I will have download card stickers to help me get enough money for a physical release! All that preparation and hard work paid off. What a relief! I am very excited about it too. This album turned out to be spectacular, if I do say so myself. God has blessed this project from the beginning. There were hiccups and challenges and things didn't go as easily or smoothly as I had hoped, but thanks to some generous fans we made it happen! Not to mention, the invaluable business lessons I learned along the way. And to think I only began this because God closed every other door! Well, I'm buckled in now! Ready to see where God takes me on this ride. I'm just asking to be able to pay my bills, but whatever God wants to do with this, I say YES. BUY THE ALBUM  

A few adorable young triplets came to the tasting room where I work and associated Henry with the Disney Jr cartoon,  Henry Hugglemonster and a nickname was born! Sometimes we are lucky to find the kinds of pets described in many older children's books. The kind that comfort at just the right moments, protect and entertain, and really seem to communicate with you. My Henry Hugglemonster is one such dog.   Defining "man's best friend"

I got home from a great show in Reno and sat down to listen to  the almost finished EP I'll be releasing later this month. There was no sleeping after that! Kirk did such an amazing job with this acoustic EP. So I set to work this morning/last night preparing for its genesis. Took a video, edited a couple videos and posted them on youtube, finished setting my website up with social media links and putting content up for people to engage. All part of the modern marketing strategy. What you all wouldn't know is how terrifying this is! I have put a lot of time and effort into building this business and, like all business, it is dependent on other people for success. God clearly led me here at the end of my rope and has blessed me with a good logical head on my shoulders, but my livelihood depends on the populace. I have medical bills and debt that some people would think is nothing, but for my budget it is over my head. I can't trust the populace to pay me enough to li

I do so enjoy a good summer storm like today! I don't much like hot weather and when the rain started falling while I was at work I couldn't resist a step onto the back deck. The steamy air, dark clouds and big raindrops falling on my skin were most welcome after this unusually hot weather! I wasn't the only one enjoying it either. I finally got customers once it started raining! Then my drive home brought the smell of wet pine trees and a view of mist across the road and over the mountains. Storms are powerful and can be dangerous, but maybe that image of God's power and gentleness is what I love most about them. It's just so beautiful that a God so powerful to make weather ever changing and drastic loves me ! Anyway, today was gorgeous and this evening chill is blissful. I am so thankful for this much needed, refreshing summer!
