Happy New Year 2025! Let Undawnted be the Soundtrack for Your Imagination

Beginning a New Year is always exciting! 

But I began my resolutions a month early with the creation of two albums. One, I used my short story: The Town Santa Forgot as inspiration!

_____

With the release of my holiday album: Yuletide Celebration, I promised Bonus Tracks. The first one is an old favorite to read on Yuletide Eve, and now it is set to music! Santa's coming...

T'was the Night Before Yuletide: 


The second and final Bonus Track is a New Year's Eve staple, Auld Lang Sine. This new rendition of this old favorite will leave you in tears by saying good-bye to the past year and hello to the new:  


For the rest of the album, Yuletide Celebration has a Playlist. Listen to holiday songs that bring back happy memories, as well as, some new singles that will bring today's feelings into tomorrow's reflections.

The singles from this album go on sale soon!

The second one, I used my poetic prowess as my musical muse. Dive into my current selections and discover my debut album: Undawnted. Here is the Playlist so far, with more songs being added in January!

Listen to the smash hit: Quantum Time... take a joyride with me-

Like, Comment, and Subscribe, if you like my vibe!

DL Mullan has been a musical wonder and performer for decades. 

A teacher noticed her abilities on her dynamic, and technically perfect, first use of the violin at age ten during class. She was rushed into Competitive Orchestra the next school year. In addition, she went to an Arts Magnet high school, where she pursued Concert Choir. 

DL Mullan has written music for competitions, competed in talent shows, won an award for her solo singing, as well as maintained her lyricist skills as an award-winning poet. 

With her classical training, as well as her grandfather's jazz pianist genes, both musical legacies will be reflected in her pieces.

Deck the Halls with Yuletide Celebration!

As a gifted singer and musician, writing my own music for an album has been a dream of mine. 

My disabling illness has kept me from what I love to do, but no longer. Technology has caught up to me, finally. In so, I have added Albums and Singles to my repertoire on the right-hand menu, as well as Undawnted's seasonal reads program.

The first album is called Yuletide Celebrations (playlist). Many classic and traditional songs are geared toward religions, but for those of us who are spiritual and revere the natural processes, there is little music for us during the holiday season. This album bridges that gap. 

But the original music is for everybody

For example, one single off the album has already been released: Deck the Halls. I will be working on actual music videos in the near future. For now, enjoy a representative song for the album: fun, upbeat, and toe-tapper! 

You won't be able to sit still with these re-imaged renditions, new lyrics, and positive vibe!

Have a great and safe holiday season!

DL Mullan has been a musical wonder and performer for decades. 

A teacher noticed her abilities on her dynamic, and technically perfect, first use of the violin at age ten during class. She was rushed into Competitive Orchestra the next school year. 

After switching schools, her junior high music teacher discerned her aptitude in class. As Ms. Mullan played the violin and the school only offered band and choir, she believed her musical calling would go unanswered. Fortunately, the band instructor loved the idea of having a string instrumentalist. DL Mullan was the first violinist invited into the group and seated in the flute section. She spent two years in band, which she became a magnet for other string-playing students, as well as succeeding to second chair. 

High school was a different matter. A violin in a Marching Band was not a match made. Without any background in singing, Ms. Mullan entered the world of choir. During her time in Concert Choir, she taught herself the piano, some drums, and took guitar lessons to expand her aspirations. Upon developing her voice, she discovered that she was an operatic lyric soprano with at least eight octaves at her disposal. She sang in theater productions, graduations, and other activities from high school and throughout college. 

DL Mullan has written music for competitions, competed in talent shows, won an award for her solo singing, as well as maintained her lyricist skills as an award-winning poet. 

Her grandfather was a jazz pianist, and that legacy is also reflected in her pieces.

This chapbook houses "a darker breed of poetry," from paranormal research topics to metaphysical literary iterations. There is a poem for everyone who is curious. Readers love to stalk the poems within:

"As if Poe came right off the page. This homage is literally perfect." 

"The poem [Breathe] is as scrumptious and sensual as it is dark and deep."

"This is a first for me. I have never read genre poetry before. I love it. Hugely imaginative and utterly unique..." 
 
"One of your best works. Beautiful 3 part movement. Flowed very nicely." 
 
"A lot of thought has gone into this very interesting poem, which made me think, which is what poetry should be all about, 5-star poem[.]"

All Beginnings Begin with Another Chapter's End

Autumn is right around the corner but summer still lingers on. 

The cooler mornings have arrived. The gentle breezes summon the desert's occupants to awaken from their heat comas and rise to meet the world.The desert is alive once more at the stroke of midnight.

Summer cannot hold out much longer. Mother Nature will have her way. Autumn is coming... 

Less than three weeks away from the autumnal solstice and Halloween already calls. What spooky nights lie ahead is anyone's guess. The night is ready for her close-up. 

How about you? Are you ready to end the summer and begin the third chapter of a four season year?

Have a great and wonderful day!

Welcome Authonomy Friends

Sad day to know that Authonomy, an online writing community I have been involved with for nearly eight years, is closing at the end of September 2015.

We have shared our hopes and aspirations of being published authors. We have laughed, cried, and cheered. 

Now welcome to my new format.  Please browse around and leave a comment. 

It is nice to know in the vastness of the world wide web that writers connect no matter the medium.

Thank you!
