Good to know you're still alive and well, can't wait to see what you'll do with your new software. Gosh so many questions and words to say, hopefully I can express them to you in a reasonable manner lol. I want to be like you, I want to make music and I want to make people happy and entertained like you but I don't know where to start. I just started my life and it feels like I still don't have enough time. I love playing the ukulele, guitar, tenor guitar, and piano (I want to pick up the bass and drums too lmao) but I am really bad at most of them and I don't feel as if I can master them quick enough, and I feel like it'd be too late for me to get lessons on them. As well as I have loads of recording of songs that I have started but I don't know what to do with them, I don't have any type of recording or editing software, and I don't even know what type to get. It feels like I'm just stuck in this hole of, "I want to do it, but I don't have the
  means t
 o do it. " And I really want to try to make music for a living. I really hope this hasn't gotten too confusing, but I want to be a successful musician, like you, but I don't know where to start or what to do, and you're one of the only famous people who like actually responds to, pretty much, all of their fans. Do you have any tips on what I should do, or where I should start or anything? P. S. Sorry for making you read this long lol
keep writing songs, recording them, and figure out what's going to play on the screen while the song plays. if you think you can make a video, that's cool too. but if you can't, just designate something interesting to look at on the screen while your song is playing. and make a bunch of video files that have your song on it, with the visual. keep doing that, and make your own channel (even if it's just on your hard drive). keep a notebook, give updates, record commentary, ...... basically make your own tv show. and then after it has gone on for a few months or a year or so, whenver you are feeling ready, start looking around at various online platforms you like best, and make accounts there and start posting the content there. it's pretty much a steady staircase to success, if you start treating yourself like the star of your own show, immediately. i am just guessing at what you might be interested in, because you said "like you" (me), and pretty much what i do is i star in my own imaginary show, and then when i feel like the show is good enough i start posting it online. pretty cool
