Music wise, things have been going alright. Since I've started NaNoWriMo, it's turned into a quality way to spend my time procrastinating on that (still having content issues). It's not so much that I've been writing new stuff, but rather that I've just been learning more about what I do and what I want to do. Right now, CSU is hosting David Maslanka, a fairly famous composer, for the Rocky Mountain Contemporary Music festival; I went to hear him speak to the composition seminar (which I'm not part of, and wasn't.. really all that welcome at), and it turns out that he and I share a lot of the same ideas on the source of music for the composer. Granted, we differ on a lot, also, such as the fact that he refuses to touch computers, or to plan out his songs in advance, whereas I use the computer for 75% of my composition, and, being a choral writer, can't help but plan out my works. Anyway, I printed out a few of my pieces, and I'm going to try to schedule a little meeting time with him today before he leaves so that I can have a talk with him and maybe have him look at some of what I've written. I really hope that goes through - I'd be nice to have some input from someone who has been doing what I want to do for the past.. oh.. 50 years.
