Sentence structure and definitions are years away yet words still have meaning, sounds still have a purpose while schedules and existence begin to formulate. In my young adult years my focus shifted from thinking as a musician to thinking as an engineer. For some reason my mind was learning to trust God to work out the details and work towards a career in the music business. The Art of Developing Fans For Life describes real life events of how recording artists communicate. What are the components & music performance data involved in the music business? Can we visualize the how the masters of the industry build their business? There is referenced material from professional resources.

This book is a literary tool to help bridge the gap of making a living working in the music business. Getting paid for working is a plus and learning to manage the experience is what my literary efforts are about. Upward Communication, locating a circle of competence and applying industry standard approaches to small business through creating tangible literary support in the field of engineering helps to move the subject to another level. Also the tangible asset is based on real life experiences from two generations ago to future generations from now. Creative writing skills in the academic field endeavor to create viable income as a writer. As earlier stated the language of an infant can make a heart grow fonder. The language of someone learning to appreciate the recording techniques shown by masters is part of the formula to achieve great sounding records. Big VU meters on the compressors and Big VU Meters on the recording consoles shape the context of learning to trust the people you work with. As an individual my efforts work towards being as my grandfather was a first class citizen. My digital world is always improving and family always encourages me to work towards my goals and objectives. Adding value through work experience can be thought of as establishing employment opportunities of tomorrow. Learning to become an entrepreneur stepping on the academic references that this book has successfully gained.

First-rate prep school, S.U.V., and a dream house in the heights: This was the island paradise handed to Loren Foster when he moved to Hawaii with his father six years ago. Now, with the end of high school just around the corner, his best friend, Shane, has grown distant. The rumors say it's hard drugs, and Loren suspects that Shane has left him behind for a new group of friends. What sets Johnson's drama apart is the naturalistic ease with which he explores the relationships of his characters. It is at once an unsentimental portrait of that most awkward period between adolescence and young adulthood and that rarest of things: a mature depiction of immature lives. |
