I particularly enjoy the Detroit's annual Concert of Colors world music and diversity festival. This year, I scored a media pass to cover the festival for Midwest Guest. I was able to get some great photos because of that, and I was offered the chance to do a phone interview with Grammy-Award winning music producer Don Was! Was is a legend in these parts and had recently wrapped up working with the Rolling Stones on their reissue of "Exile on Main Street" when I talked with him. He was a pretty chill guy, we had a great time talking about some of the great new music coming out of Detroit these days, and I was particularly proud of the resulting article. http://www.midwestguest.com/2010/06/where-i-live-don-was-the-concert-of-colors-and-the-great-spirit-in-detroit.html Happy New Year, Pam...and enjoy the penguins! :) Some of my favorite posts are music-related, and that’s no surprise given Detroit’s music heritage and growing up here with all sorts of great local music!

I can say that this is the best round up piece so far this year, as it actually lets you learn something new, about writers and how they think about themselves. Brava! Mine, well after complex plans and promises to write more this year, I found, of course that I did not. Somehow, I spent most of the time from April thru December luxuriating is not doing, but being. Just, being. But I like this piece a lot: http://tiny.cc/gopn2 Written on the last day I worked. And this comes in at a tie-the last piece I have written this year. http://tiny.cc/c7sb2 Who knows what 2011 will bring--perhaps a surge of writing during my first full year of real freedom. well- well.
