About DailyDoseOfDevy
When I started this blog in late 2016 I did so because major changes in my life had left me in a bad spot, and I found that for myself, Devin’s music was at risk of becoming heavy reminders of my life in the past. I didn’t want to let that be the case, so I started this blog in an attempt to reconnect with and share the music that I enjoy so much, confronting my personal associations one song at a time. As often with these things, some days were rough and others were just another tuesday.
After going through nearly every song and diving into transcriptions, I think I was mostly successful in this reconnection project, and ready to call the blog a finished chapter. But the thing I hadn’t really anticipated was a following of other Townsend fans that came around to get their daily dose of devy. I was just doing my own thing with someone else’s music and people kept showing up. It was honestly refreshing and motivating, and while I know people are here for Devin and his music first and foremost, I feel like connecting fans is a healthy direction for this blog. It makes me think that calling this blog one and done at this point may be a waste.
I am still going to be busy for a while as I wrap up university, but I’m wondering how to continue this blog in an appropriate way. Currently I’m considering starting up daily posts again, and take another run at Devin’s discography. Possibly album by album or Chronologically this time. But I’m not sure when I’ll have time and energy for transcriptions again, so that part may stay benched for now.
I’m also wondering if people are interested in having a discord in the future to chat with other devheads? Or even have an interest in connecting at all?
Please let me know what you think this blog should be in the future and if you have any preferences or suggestions.
