Some moments from the Tucson Folk Festival. I played with The Secret Trails and also did a solo set. Super fun:) #tucsonfolkfest #folkmusic #songwriter

I'm not sure if many BlueSky peeps watch live music (or even see my posts), but I'll be live streaming from my studio tonight with a set of love songs, some I wrote, some I didn't. It'll be fun. Here's a link for tickets: ryandavidorr.bandcamp.com/merch/live-f...

Off to teach the night class. Finals are due in a week. I will be amaaaazed if anyone shows up.

My indie-folk band The Secret Trails will be playing this Friday and Saturday for the Fired Arts Festival at D.A. Ranch Vineyard in Cornville, AZ. If you're in the central-AZ area, check out www.firedartsfestival.com for Info!

A curiosity directed toward other writers of fiction: on average how much time do you spend on a character sketch for a main-ish character?

I'm not sure I have the energy for more social media platforms, but, like, what else was I gonna do anyway?
