If you hadn't had the cheaper guitar, you may not have become a writer, and that would be a sad thing for your fans!<br /><br />And I have to say sorry for not knowing WHO Kenny is to the next guy in a Stetson (not that there are that many in NZ) but he is one FINE specimen alright : )<br /><br />Had to add, it's lovely to be able to put a face to the name of my editor. I'd love to have been there with you all. Oh well, there is always next time!LaVerne Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10418742073687153863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-857180574575421857.post-32945967879732271752011-05-26T20:13:25.579-04:002011-05-26T20:13:25.579-04:00Johanna's stroke of good luck = two thumbs up....Johanna's stroke of good luck = two thumbs up.<br /><br />The flu for you = bummer!<br /><br />Hope you feel better soon!The Word Placehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00283938312275406325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-857180574575421857.post-55659262991780342052011-05-26T18:49:25.502-04:002011-05-26T18:49:25.502-04:00I always used to chuckle over that line.

To press a chord onto a fret took such pressure that my fingers got thick callusses. Then one day I worked and bought my Gibson. Playing was a joy. Just a light touch and my notes flowed. If only I'd had a better guitar when I was young, I probably would be a great player today. But the difficultly discouraged me, so I played less then I wanted to!! LOL! Just thought I'd mention that! Great blog. Love people with talent like Kenny!Mary Ricksenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12676306822821614446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-857180574575421857.post-62301543344859785592011-05-26T16:52:27.513-04:002011-05-26T16:52:27.513-04:00Vonnie,

I had my eyes open as my last book is about a Nashville songwriter.<br /><br />You are "right on" when you say we create a melody as sure as a songwriter. I wrote both Christian and country years ago, and like novel writing, it's storytelling. Thanks for a fun post. Get well soon.Barbara Weitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04282872369066664256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-857180574575421857.post-83952151906903850342011-05-26T16:10:47.631-04:002011-05-26T16:10:47.631-04:00Vonnie, Lots of Orange Juice.
