Hello, my name is Joe, or "Your Average Joe". This is my ninth FAWM.

I'm not sure how much music I will be able to make this year, as I'm preparing to move to another country on February 28th!

There is still so much to do... I hope to listen to your music while cleaning my apartment and preparing my things. Thank you all in advance for sharing your creativity and music with us, FAWM is magical.

I have no doubts that the changes in my life will bleed into the songs I do manage to write. I hope to share with you again this year, happy FAWM everyone.

Also, I will not be using any LLM / AI in my songwriting process, although most of us are using it (or being used by it) inadvertently these days and without our consent or knowledge.

The point of this process for me is to hone into my creativity and to express my deeper "self", and using an AI would be the opposite of that. That would be like outsourcing, why would I give away my job of making music and stretching my skills and trying new things? I do this work for free, because I love it. #noAI
