OFFICIAL LYRIC VIDEO!

With less than two weeks before the release of I Hope My Voice Doesn't Skip, La-based band Highland Kites and I are excited to reveal the official lyric video for "Between the Notes." Co-writing with the lead singer, Marissa, was a dream come true. This poem/song can be found in my upcoming poetry collection.

EXCLUSIVE POEM

Hey everyone! I shared a poem from I Hope My Voice Doesn't Skip in the latest issue of Double the Books! It is called TOLD MYSELF and I've only read it at one reading so far. Would love to hear your thoughts??

It actually almost didn't make it into the book! I had been working on this one piece for maybe THREE MONTHS and my deadline for my manuscript passed. Luckily, when I finished it, I was able to sneak it into the book!

I Hope My Voice Doesn't Skip comes out June 5.

SONGS in I HOPE MY VOICE DOESN'T SKIP

Have you listened to HOPE (w/ Ada Pasternak) the first song from I HOPE MY VOICE DOESN'T SKIP yet??

Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9rRw...

My book features 7 singers who turned my poetry into beautiful music! 8 songs were formally recorded! This unique aspect of my book is what I am most excited about! (You can tell by all the exclamation marks I just used in that paragraph.)

I will be releasing the music here and there leading up to the release of the book.

HOPE is a great introduction to the whole book, as my latest poetry collection is dedicated to everyone who is recovering from something.

Don't forget to add I HOPE MY VOICE DOESN'T SKIP to your TBR!! I Hope My Voice Doesn't Skip

Love,

Alicia
