# water what waters you

the past month has been a bit of an internal roller coaster. a lot of sources of stress from my personal life seemed to almost wash away with the **musical deluge** in my creative life.

the reception to my first drop with [Wild Awake](https://mirror.xyz/wildawake.eth/) along with the reception to the [full EP](https://open.spotify.com/album/4jtAa5mqybyU9z6DxJ2qV8?si=lNuTYja7Tw277oUMG8zEsg) being released filled my internal cup to the brim - topped off with a **cherry** that was a [Radio 1 play](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001lw30). **thank you** to anyone and everyone that has offered a kind word, collected or streamed my music and/or given it their time of day.

as i write this, i now seem to be coming down the other side of the crest, riding a wave that seems to want me to **create** every hour of every day - anywhere and everywhere i can find the time.

it’s a nice feeling; it’s a feeling you can’t **force**, nor **forsee** but when you notice it happening, it’s paramount you listen to it and **give it the time of day**.

so, apologies if i’m a bit quiet, i’m just busy **watering** myself and seeing what grows from it.
