Hi All,

Today I got a forward for the very first time, and I'm thrilled!

It's taken me a while. I've had around 30 returns. Though it was tempting to give up, instead I decided to try to learn from each return and keep trying. I had heard an interview with Matt Vander Boegh in which he mentioned having had 60 or 70 returns before he started getting forwards. In light of his ultimate success, I decided that as long as I was able to learn and improve from each return, I wouldn't worry about it until I got to at least 70. I am so grateful to Matt for having shared his experience publicly. Many people wouldn't mention how many returns they had before they started getting forwards. I hope he knows that by sharing his story, he is helping many of us keep going!

Oh, if you'd like to hear my track that got forwarded (a meditation instrumental), here's a link to it:

This is so great, Donnalyn! So happy for you, and I'm glad my own history of returns kept you pushing through!!

that's a great lesson in persistence and focus. one i can learn from myself.
also, just listened to the track. really nice work. congrats on the forward.

Thanks, Erik!

Thanks, Matt! And thanks, Carey!

Congrats! Most defiantly worthy of a forward. “Shoot downs” go hand ’n hand in this crazy world we’re in. I was in the jingle biz pretty heavily for several years and so if someone doesn’t tell me I stink at least three times a week it’s not a good week. Lol At least we get the joy of sitting in the middle of that and creating it. Not everybody has that release or even interest.

Love your track and I look forward to hearing more. If you don’t mind talking’ shop…what did you use?

Congrats-great mood!

Congratulations! Yes, interviews like Matt Vander Boegh's and so many others from Taxi TV are very inspiring. They really help, stimulate and encourage to continue.
May this be the first forward of many others soon!!
