I started the Song of the Week Challenge a couple months ago. My original goal was to return to songwriting. I would write a new song every week and share it with my Patrons.

Since starting it, I've written several new songs. But at the beginning of October, I remembered I had a Celtic Christmas album to finish. I still shared songs, but I felt I lost a little direction with the Song of the Week Challenge. I've come to realize I must adapt to who I am.

I will continue to share a new song every week with my Patrons. However, it will include some changes. Here's what you might get when you make a pledge and become a Patron of the Arts:

• An original song by Marc Gunn, written that very week.
• A song collaboration recorded by me. This could be lyrics by someone else and music by me, or possibly the other way around. It could be a side project too
• An instrumental song by me
• A traditional Irish or Scottish song
• A cover song that I love.

There are many, many possibilities. I do see the Song of the Week Challenge as an opportunity to write more music. I'm gonna continue to focus on that. But when big projects arise, there may be other things that happened. So just be aware.

Thanks again to all my Patrons of the Arts who are helping me to make a living with my art. You can become a Patron for as little as $1 a month. But for $5, the cost of a latte at Starbucks, you'll get a TON of free music. Go to marcgunn.net and show your support.
