I started writing songs about 10 years ago after I got my wonderful old Gibson J45, which kicked my ass to start taking music more seriously. I was delighted to find something new in life that I really loved doing.

This is my fourth FAWM to participate in. I wrote 11 songs during FAWM 2021, which was very exciting and super fun, and have written a few songs every year since then. February is always a very busy month for me, but I'm always happy if I can pull off a few songs that didn't exist in the world before!

Here are a few past songs: https://shelleyackerman.bandcamp.com
