HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL OSCA MEMBERS!!!

Greetings to all new and old members from your new newsletter person.

My name is Peggy Marston. I’m originally from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I lived in New Orleans for several years and most recently in Bloomington, Indiana. Now I’m alive and well in OKC. I feel like I’ve returned to my ancestral home since most of my dad’s family was from Southeastern OK since before statehood. I look forward to meeting and working with my fellow OSCA members.

If anyone wishes to join OSCA, or if you have news for the newsletter, you can contact me at: mamarston@cox.net
my phone numbers are 405-607-0445 or cell 405-301-7071


SONGWRITERS CHALLENGE

This is a new segment I’m adding to the newsletter – Challenge yourself to write a song. This month it’s about the holiday season.
You can write a cute song for children, an adult fun song for grown ups or a religious song for your family or church or worship group, or any kind of song that expresses your holiday spirit.
If your city or county has a special holiday celebration, write a song about that. Who knows, next year they might perform your song at the celebration. If you haven’t written a song in a while, the holiday season is a good time to challenge yourself to start writing again.

So what do you do with the new song you write every month? Submit it to our Songwriter of the Month competition – see information below.

LYRICS WRITER SEEKING COLLABORATION

New member, Donna Marston from Troy, KS is looking for a music writer to collaborate with her. Any one interested, e-mail mamarston@cox.net for information for her contact information.


TOOLS OF THE TRADE ADDED

We have a new section on the web site. Tools of the Trade. Here you will find education tools to help better your skills in song writing. If you have anything you would like to add please submit it to Ann Hardin.

 

 

 

 

The Oklahoma Songwriters Web-site is adding a page just for the SONGWRITER OF THE MONTH.

On that page will feature:

1) The winning lyrics of your song scrolling for viewers
2) Your song automatically playing when the web page comes up.
3) Slide show of up to 6 photos(s) from the featured songwriter
4) A bio with more extensive information about the songwriter (than what is posted on our members pages for free) and what inspired them to write the song being featured.
5) Your own personal space on OSCA web site for the month to spotlight and sell your recordings if desired.

PERSONAL PROMOTIONAL PAGES

Our web designer is offering "Personal Promotional Pages" for all OSCA Members. If you have a CD or appearance, etc. to promote a one time charge of $25 (payable directly to our web designer, not through OSCA) will give you your own personal web page attached to your Members section on OSCA web site.

Contact awhardin@oklahomasongwriters.com  for information on how to provide payment, text, photos and mp3's to our web designer.

 

FREE EMAIL ACCOUNTS FOR OSCA MEMBERS

If you have an e-mail account then you have already been notified about the newly constructed OSCA web-site! If you do have an e-mail account and did not receive the information then OSCA does not have your mail account on file!!!!
