Hi all! Thanks for reading. The Song Factory is on hiatus for a little while, as non-substack activity is eating away at my free time. My flagship account Hot Plate! is still cooking along.
I’ve been working on my fiction writing, and it’s long hours.
The Song Factory will return when I get a bunch of fiction in the can. In the meantime, please enjoy the archive, and I’ll continue to answer questions and reply to comments.
Here’s a song to tide you over. From the modern Bob Dylan era; he’s been doing excellent work in recent years. It feels good to have a little corner of pop music reserved for artists who know about things other than youth.
Love and Theft is one of my favourites. I really enjoy the song factory, Karl. I'll look forward to its return. And good luck with your other endeavours.
I picture you tapping away on your keyboard, getting up to pace the floor.
