Back in 2019, an MRI indicated that I had an aneursym in my ascending aorta. Yikes, I thought. I must be on my way out. I wrote a letter to all my people telling them I loved them and … see ya.

It relaxes me, which inspired this podcast. Complete with a wild parrot honing in.The Muse is In workshopsSupport the show Upcoming art and creativity programs www.themuseisin.com
