Surprise!
I was road-tripping all of September and most of October. 11,561 kilometres in 56 days. Eight weeks of awesome! There were many, many highlights but when I checked my emails at Mount Surprise, I'd received three from the Australian Songwriting Association - and each of those indicated I had been shortlisted in a category of the current Songwriting Competition! The categories were specified but not the songs. However, I know my songs as I only entered three:- Got No Place To Go (Folk) She Calls Me Back (Ballad) You Draw Blood (Rock/Indie) The next stage of judging is to choose the Top 30 Finalists, and these will be published on the ASA website before the end of October. The Top 10 Finalists are to be announced at the National Songwriting Awards, which will be held in Sydney on Thursday 28 November.
