Hi everyone,
Since December I haven’t done much musically, but have been preparing for a book release instead. It is currently in the publishing process and should be out towards the end of the year. No-one seems to be listening to my songs and music much at the moment, which is understandable as there is so much more music out there that has had a lot of time, money and effort spent on it and it shows in the production quality.
Releasing my music on a budget was not a risk, but more of a personal decision and, financially, of little loss and concern. It was more of an inner desire and not a quest for success.
However, the release of my lyrics in the form of poetry is a big venture and at a price. As I gave my songs some exposure, in an audible format, I felt it was only right to give my words a chance without the music being the main focal point. It is a brave thing for me to do as hardly anybody knows me and the chance of the book gaining interest is doubtful. This is where i am relying on the publishing company to do what is needed to reach the people that will be interested.
I will mention the release closer to the time and hope for the best. If (or if not in fact) it gains success i will release more books of lyrical poetry. I am working on the manuscripts for book 3 and beyond.
I will say that if poetry isn’t your kind of thing then that doesn’t mean you’ll dislike the words within my books. They are influenced by reality, but in a fictional context more often than not. Often, the words are written from an ‘I/ Me’ perspective, but not necessarily applicable to myself, just me putting myself in someone else’s situation and seeing things from their perspective.
I will leave it at that, for now, and let you decide if and when you get to read them.
Thanks for reading this and I hope my writing history can create an interesting read.
Kind regards,
Colin E. Pyle
