ANNOUNCEMENTS LISTED HERE! (IN MORE DETAIL!)

1. so. much. gratitude. your kindness, encouragement, generosity, and support are overwhelming and uplifting and astonishing. your art, your covers, your responses, and your kind words fill my heart and make it glow. thank you, from the bottom of my overflowing heart.

2. i'm finally on streaming platforms! spotify, apple music, itunes, amazon music, google play, and many more. woo hoo! i'm still in the recording process, however, so as of right now, only my first five songs are available to stream. the rest are coming, i promise! i'm releasing each one into the world as soon as they are done.

(2a. this wasn't in the song, but i want to deeply thank those who have supported me financially for my creative endeavours, and those to come. i have a bandcamp link, where those same first five songs are available for download-by-donation. i am floored by your generosity. you have no idea how much it means, how much i appreciate it, and how much it has helped. thank you, thank you, thank you.)

3. VOX MACHINA INCOMING! i have plans to do much the same type of series for campaign one! i am so excited! but before i do, i'm taking a little creative break to recharge. don't worry -- you'll hear about it when it happens.

the biggest thanks to the cast and crew of critical role.
the biggest thanks to the crit role community.
we are stories.

LYRICS

well, hello, my name is lilli -- it's nice to meet you, finally!
i've got a couple things i'd like to say
i ask you to be patient, 'cause i'm a little nervous,
and i think it might be easier this way

first thing's first: i've got a lot of thank yous
the cup inside my heart is filled to brim
and it overflows with all your kindness --
i could not predict
just how generous of heart and soul the critter family's been

so: i've got a few announcements for what's coming in the future
and also what i'm working on right now
it's thanks to your encouragement, kindness, and support
that my spotify and apple music songs are live somehow!

and if some of you have already been streaming
you'll find there are some tracks still yet to come
i promise you we'll get there
(i'm just figuring it out!)
i'll record my final touches, and release them when i'm done!

onto something quite exciting: there will be more music coming!
i've plans to do the first campaign as well!
our disaster friends, vox machina -- the heroes of exandria
i'm privileged with stories yet to tell

but it's here i'll ask to exercise that patience
'cause before i get to that, i'll take a break
i will take some time to work on rhyme, and rest my calloused hands
i'll recharge to keep my heart and still create

well, hello, my name is lilli -- it's so nice to meet you, finally!
i wish i could explain just how i feel
these last few months have been a journey i cannot describe
i remind myself each morning that it's real

and like i said, i have so many thank yous
to cast and crew and critters, all in tune
so be poetry in motion!
love each other with abandon!
(is it thursday yet?)
i'll see you very soon
