Comment:

This mix was put together for a mix club swap. Its assigned theme was becoming a writer. Quite appropriate, I must say, since that has been my profession. Anyway, thanks to some of my mixing pals for suggestions on a few of the songs. And you should really think about buying a copy of Kris Delmhorst's wonderful album, "Strange Conversation."

Wow! I absolutely love this. Don't you adore Kris Delmhorst? She's great. What about "Wrapped up in Books" Belle and Sebastian and "Publish my Love" Rogue Wave? A very creative mix, well done!
