Tracking the Writer In Me...

Okay, I've decided to start posting my writing links again because well...I need to keep track of them online. I have the clips, but that's about it. It's really a shame because I did so much writing at the end of 2006 for Giant Step (www.giantstep.net) . I will try and remember and post the links here. Check out the link I bolded (hint...it's Jamiroquai related..haha). I do reviews, show write ups and interviews. It's a bit easier with the Citypaper links, because I have the invoices, but the others..ummmm....Anyway, I'll update this weekly. Enjoy and remember I'm not a writer. I'm just a lover of music and am literate, so I put the two together and get this....Check my myspace also if you feel like it: www.myspace.com/coveryourlover.
