Stories give our lives meaning in a universe where there may be no meaning, by Davin Michael Stedman

Stories give our lives meaning in a universe where there may be no meaning.

I like stories. They sound good with music. We have only been able to record them for a little over a hundred years. We’ve been jotting them down for centuries, passing them from one singer to another for thousands more.

When I leave this plane of existence or just cease to be, I hope I can give you over a thousand of them that are complete enough to be considered complete published works.

Having them all produced and having me singing them with final takes in unlikely, but I might be able to polish and release a couple hundred of the best.

I’ll need help. A lot of help. But I got some dimes, and I am happy to share the credit and shares in the glory, what ever that might be. For the model of streaming may allude us from the riches of the previous generations raised on swing, crooners, beatlemania, and cash registers that rang for the boom and bap of storied raps.

But I am going for it. I have thousands of song ideas and sketches. But scuplting is the art form. Sketching is what the sculptor must do first.
