What I’m doing now.

Since Morning Tempo is the hidden hub of everything I do professionally, I decided it’s the best place to tell you what’s going on in my world right now.

Web & Design

Las Lajas WordPress Meetup

Preparing a presentation for our 4th Meetup on WordPress website security. Web and IT security has always been an interest of mine. This is going to be a fun learning project, as I dig into recommendations by WPBeginner, WordFence and my network of WordPress experts.

Google Analytics

I’m committed to spending more time with Google Analytics to figure out what’s happening with my web traffic, and how that can help my podcasts.

Podcasting

So much for hitting the pause button on the Morning Tempo podcast. I’ve not been actively seeking out interviews. It’s been more of a passive search, with the occasional fortuitous opportunity. Episode 34 is coming soon.

The Unstarving Musician rolls on.

Music

Song Composition

My first single is nearing completion. It awaits backing vocal tracks and final mixing. I’m reliant on a couple of other players for backing vocals and final mixing, but working with others is part of the fun.

Since gearing up for home recording, the opportunities to record drums for others seem plentiful. I’ve also discovered the new world of online collaboration platforms. It should be quite easy to stay engaged.

Writing

I’m closing on on the first draft of the Unstarving Musician’s Guide to Getting Paid Gigs 2nd edition.

The opportunity to write for Forbes.com recently entered the picture, and I’m working on my second article. Here’s my first article.
