There's more to the project than what is covered by the grant.
The part covered by the grant is basically (1) getting a website built and running, (2) having six songs produced, and mastered, and (3) posting at least nine completed songs on the website.
Beyond that, my vision for the project is to showcase and encourage "late bloomers" (like me) and to spread the message that:
1. It is possible to start something new/realize a life dream at any age,
including especially ages that typically are considered "too old".
2. It isn't necessary to be an expert in order to do something, even to do it with abandon.
3. Success doesn't necessarily equal rich and famous
To prove it I'll be posting bios of late bloomers in various fields (primarily the arts, but other areas may also be covered), both famous ones (like Laura Ingalls Wilder or Grandma Moses) and not-so-well known ones like the weaver I know in a college town not far from here who has a successful arts-based business.
That's the nutshell version.
