It's Five A.M. and I'm feeling very connected to my mom & grandfather right now because of a vivid dream that woke me this morning. I feel connected to my mom and Papa because they too had very vivid dreams that they always remembered and sometimes they were prophetic. My mom always acknowledged that I did the same kind of dreaming. The three of us had recurring dreams as well. My mom had a recurring dream that she told me (when I was 14) was about me singing in the then Soviet Union in front of …
Moving forward, taking chances with the solo show! (I have a title!)
After my last blog of self-reflection and bemoaning over my lack of action in showbiz at my advanced age of 54 years, I have decided to submit my one woman show in a solo festival. If I make the cut it will be produced, mounted and given all the bells and whistles (production, stage managing, marketing, a theater) that I have only dreamed about. It will become a reality!

I’m getting old and I can’t deny it. Yet, still I dream of doing great things. Is that crazy?
I feel it more than I can deny it. It is in my bones, my muscles, in the number of things I have accumulated in my house. I think about death.

Should I be saying: I am old? Should I just get real …
Little Gray Dots.
I should explain. The little gray dots are the seats sold for my Lynne Jordan & the Shivers Concert at City Winery Chicago. The other ones - the little brown dots are the unsold seats and there's quite a few of them. I try not to go to that page every minute though it is bookmarked on my computer and every mobil device that I own. …
My Friday, Jan 1st Concert at City Winery Chicago: The Preparation, The Worry, The Show.
It's 5AM and I figure that I may as well do something besides bemoan the fact that my sleep schedule is screwed up. I have a lot of work to do for my upcoming Lynne Jordan & the Shivers show at City Winery Chicago. They asked me to perform on New Year's Night which happens to fall on a Friday. This is a change, as all of my past shows have been on a week day. One might think that would be easier to fill the seats but it is New Year's Day and folks will be out of town or tired from New Year's Eve …
