I don't want attention.

I don't want attention.
I don't want attention.Admittedly, it takes some confidence & cahones to post up one's efforts because one has to have (if I may repeat myself) the skin of a snow tire and must take the bitter with the sweet comments.
I hear you....I'm no attention seeker either and have no expectations that anyone would like my song writing drivel, it's just what I do.
I know my place in the music world which is just a song writing bottom feeder.
I've uploaded some of mine (sigs) but just to interact a bit with those of like interest.
I've never actively promoted myself in this context.
I don't write pop pablum or sappy, maudlin love songs.
Hence, I have no fan base (& fan is singular tense) and will never remotely successful at it.
But...that's not my motivation....it's all just creative therapy for me.
Back to it....keep up the good work!
