May 2o13: Performance at The Fire in Philly tomorrow night after 9 pm!! Be there or be octagon!

So in other news, the EP is coming along. Drummer John O’Reilly (fun, Jason Mraz) has cooked up some sweet rhythms and my producer John Evola (Chris Brown) has some sweet beats also. My latest song, Radio Silence was co-written with another Chris Brown collaborator, aka Cory Walters, and will feature his vocals in harmony. I am very excited for this and I hope you are all too! It’s been a long wait but baby is it going to be worth it… More updates including my Music Video Kickstarter to come to you live very soon.

March 2o13: Entered two short story related contests, which I hope to hear back from. Doing copy as part of the design company The Night Crew (link to follow) and enjoying it immensely.

Life is fast! All nighter in the studio coming up at the end of the month. Starting to move out of my parent’s house (finally!) and all is well.

Feb 2o13: biggest change? My name! I’m still Julia Mae, but I wanted to separate my public life from my private, so for songwriting, I am now River. Don’t worry, my writing will be staying and I intend to keep my REAL name on my books and published works!!

Featured again on R.B. Wood’s “The Word Count Podcast” – but this time it’s my music!!! Very excited. You’ll never hear this version anywhere else: the album version is different. So yay for the support of Indie Writers!!
