"Digital Love"
by Larkins

This is a song that I just discovered toward the end of last year, so I haven't had a chance to really get into the other music that Larkins has done to this point, but I love this song and I'm excited to check it out. I also really love the video for this song, which it notes at the beginning was "shot on February 17, 2021 between 12AM and 6AM in Central London on an iPhone." The empty streets and sidewalks and storefronts are a really powerful reminder of this pretty remarkable time in history when almost the entire world was sheltering in place for literally months and months.

In other news, today (February 15th) marks the 20th anniversary of the day I joined Writing.com. It's hard to believe it's been twenty years; thinking back I realized that I signed up for this site while I was still in college, less than a year into my move from Sacramento to Los Angeles to pursue film school... and I can't even begin to count how many poems, short stories, and scripts ago. It's pretty remarkable; I've joined and left dozens of online communities in that span of time, but I've always considered Writing.com a kind of home. Somewhere I could work on my writing and build friendships no matter what else was happening in my life. I'll do a more detailed post reflecting on my time here, but... yeah... 20 years as of the 15th of this month...
