Thank you, Michelle and Mike, for responding to my gush! Marketing to symphony patrons, etc... is a great idea I never thought of. I had to become skilled enough in my own eyes to warrant serious marketing; and, now I have to learn that skill. I will definitely check out the marketing stuff here. I live in Mid-Michigan, in a little Dow town which is surprisingly rich in culture, probably because the population is an ever-changing international crowd of Dow employees. There are a few very kind people here who support the arts, but I am three hours from Detroit, and six from Chicago. Both are driveable distances, and I do have to find a way to market there.

Mike, you're not telling me anything I don't already know. In response, I must say that I don't want much, I don't need a very high standard of living or anything. For my kids' sake, I have stuck to a home and school district; but in four years my youngest will be off to college,hopefully, and I can live in a smaller place for a lot less. I'm not lookin' to get rich, but rather to spend my life doing what I really was made to do.

Thanks for both of your quick comments, and, please, Everyone, feel free to give me more!

Renee
