Hello people!
Hello people!
It’s been a while I know but as you might have noticed I guess I am not one of those gals who writes into her blog every single day.
If you have been following me on twitter or Facebook you may have heard about the Massive scare I had With My beloved Mackerel Tabby Gingy. It seems he had a massive reaction out of the blue right after a huge storm of The Santa Anna winds that blew through Los Angeles. These winds come in from off of the desert and give many people terrible allergies. I didn’t know Cats could Have asthma attacks but evidently they can and It is very serious as they are frequently misdiagnosed as was Gingey. Thanks to your many prayers and candles you lit and Great Help from The folks at the Sepulveda VCA animal hospital Gingey is still with us. He is still fighting the good fight but is also still struggling. Anyway I wanted to write this to thank you all personally from the bottom of my heart for your support, your kindness and all of the Prayers you sent him. He thanks you as well.
This has been a turbulent year for me. Big ups and big downs. I made an Indie movie, started developing My own Line of scented candles, wrote a ton more music, made art and decided that I am going to commit myself to recording an album’s worth of music.
I realized that I have been writing and Playing for so many years now that I could probably make six albums but recording and releasing one would be a start.
I have reached a point in my life where I have a strict no Bull**** policy firmly in place. I did alot of closet cleaning this year, friend wise, baloney wise and general all over life wise. You have to look at your priorities.
In my opinion, creating is the greatest achievement and expression of being alive, at least it is for me.
I have been doing it for years In the different mediums that I employ to keep my so called “sanity” however I only recently really realized that It might be a good idea to share some of it.
Thanks to My friend Neil Gaiman I was introduced to the kickstarter website. This truly is an amazing site. If you haven’t already heard of it you should check it out. Basically it provides a platform for artists and creatives to raise funds through pledges to achieve their artistic goals and one of the coolest things about kickstarter is that You know That by pledging you had a hand In making these different projects into a reality.
So Tonight I am sitting down and figuring out what I can offer to those who choose to pledge.
Basically I want to make an album and I want to film the process If I can.
I am computer challenged so It might take some time to get this up but I am going to set my sights on it and Get it done.
HOw are you all out there in the world?
I hope you are doing Fabulously and are enjoying this winter season freakish weather and all.
I will try to write in more often and go into more detail about this project.
For now, I am off to find dinner and give Gingey His meds,
I send my love, gratitude and Light out to you all.
Keep warm
xxxxxxxxxx

Glad to hear Gingey is doing better! Our prayers must have been answered :)Good luck with the album and I look forward to seeing/reading more from you here on your site, Facebook, and Twitter!!! GOD Bless and Merry Christmas…I know, it may be a bit early for that, but just in case I forget with soo much going on this time of year!!! TTYL lovely lady :)
I’ll continue to pray and light candles for Gingey and hope he makes a full recovery.
Filming the recording would be a great idea. I always love that kind of behind the scenes view of the process.
Best wishes for the project, the holidays, and the upcoming new year. :)
This is so awesome you have your own website, I think your so badass Fariuza!
I always find this time of year difficult. It’s a mix of transformations and endings. Thanks for the light you gave.
I probably need to think in the same way. My computers dying and have too many songs to know which to choose.
A thousand directions at once, guess you have to plan the destination first. Being objective with something so personal is hard.
Sadly I’ve looked into that site before and you need a US bank account. Tried it for various animations/feature films etc.
Your music is fantastic, well paced, considered and true. You’ve got such a strong presence.
Thanks for believing in mine, means more than I can express in Verdana font size 10.
But I’m still blubbing from it. Coz I’m just a bit like that.
If you ever need anything let me know. I’m sure that currency is universal.
Thank you.x
A mess,

luv ya Fariuza & u need to get wit this this is where its at. holla
Glad to hear from you again Fairuza =) . Very sorry to hear that Gingey had such a bad run in with the Santa Annas. I will join those who already have, and send him many many good wishes.
I believe I’m in the early stages of the same policy you have developed. There’s so much in life to do and strive and dream, there’s just no sense spending time we can never get back on negative nonsense or the people that seem to exist to spread it. As you said, priorities.
I look forward to your continuing creative ventures; I’m excited to see where your passions take you =) . Do let us know here when you launch a project at kickstarter, I’ll be sure to contribute what I can. I’ve made contributions to a couple projects there, which I’m happy to say were both successfully funded. A very cool and fulfilling feeling, knowing that you helped make it happen, even if your part was small compared to others. I think someone once said something to the effect of, ‘there are no small people; only small thoughts’. And if no one did, they should have =P
All my best to you and Gingey.
