Hi folks I've enjoyed the forum for  around eighteen months, or so, but thanks to JohnBee I've been outed and will have to come out of the shadows. 

Here goes:  I'm a songwriter.  There I've said it.  I'm addicted to making music - good? - bad - and indifferent.  I play a little bit of guitar - mixed styles - I mess with keys, and use a flute, mandolin and bouzouki to make music of sorts with.  I also make noises with a fiddle - but can't really play it.  I love accoustic stuff and am happy with my telecaster and my 46 year old Guild Starfire.  I'll use clips and midi if it helps me create the sound I want.

I've written more songs over more years than I care to remember.  That's it - I'm out of the closet now.

Should add I'm from the UK and currently live in Newark, Notts.  Don't really have a favourite artist or genre,  I just love music of all kinds.  Though if I want to relax on my own, Norah Jones gets many plays, though I may not admit that down at the pub.

Thanks for the welcome folks - just making me feel guilty about not getting involved sooner.  It was the amazing stuff I heard on here that made stand on the sidelines for so long.  Not worthy.
