Posted on December 6, 2015 by Judy

“You Are My Wings” was one of the first songs I chose to have arranged when I began rediscovering music in 2010.

When I composed “The Door” in 2012, my song felt like it was a huge secret. The fact that I was miserable in my marriage was not a secret to people whom I was close with. But finding the courage to divorce was overwhelming and my song helped to guide me. My husband never expected I would leave and my secret ate away at my insides. Continue reading →

THE DOOR – PART 1

Posted on January 9, 2014 by Judy

But because I did not have the courage to tell my husband, I kept my song “The Door” a secret for over a year. It was when my father died that I finally became ready to go through the front door into a new life. Continue reading →
