Inspired by Derek Sivers

Updated March 12, 2026, from my home in Massachusetts. Spring is around the corner and you can feel it.

Back in school until May

School is back in session for (probably) the last time. I’m glad to be back with my peers and to round out my time at Longy.

Teaching guitar lessons

I'm looking for students to add to my roster. If you’re interested in being part of my private studio, reach out for a free lesson!

Writing songs

If I had to pick just one thing to be, I’d pick being a songwriter. I haven’t been writing as much as I would like to, and I’ve missed it. Writing songs is a core part of who I am and I know I’m a better person when I’ve been writing. So it’s as much a benefit to you as it is to me that I resume my songwriting ways.

Working on my YouTube channel

I underestimated how my school schedule was going to interfere with my YouTube schedule. My plan is simple: one video per week. Topic is irrelevant. Lessons, cover songs, original songs

Still reading a ton

I didn’t keep track entirely, but I read somewhere between 30 and 35 books in 2025. I feel calmer and sharper because of it.

Cheers,
Amy
