Harriet Wild [yes, actually]

I have no idea what your music is like but we have the same name so that must stand for something. You have a cool last name but mine is cooler

My music is more appropriate for your name than mine, but I like mine since it means I got to have my parents. Thanks for stopping by.

Maybe we're related!

Becky McQuilling

It was a pleasure last night to hear you. I've known of you for years, Sherry (Herbie's wife) gave me your Rosebud CD and I have enjoyed that immensely. I was a musician for awhile also, bass player, used to be with the Phoenix Symphony, but I haven't done much in a long time. Hearing you makes me want to pull my bass out again, thanks, Harriet.

Thank you, Becky, and I'll pass along the compliment to my extraordinary bass player, Joe Lamanno.

please forgive a beginner writer for being afraid of being in the same computer realm with such a marvelous artist as yourself. As you can probably tell by now that the person that is writing this is very honored and priveleged and nervous at the same time . I believe you're great and hopefully I hope to meet you and learn from you. Thanks so much for being a great influence in my life as well as a great inspiration to a guy that is just starting to write. Thanks and God bless you

Hi Harriet,
Several months ago I requested and you made a CD from one of your '70's album 'She's Low Clouds'. I was actually interested in the song 'My Heart' which brought back memories of my teenage years. It was also a big hit in the Philippines where I grew up. However, I fell in love with all the other songs in that album and this all started when I typed in your name in the search box--I just wanted to know what you were up to nowadays. I live in your home state now (20 years). I also write songs every now and then-mostly romantic ballads. Have you tried doing a concert in the Phils.?They like your type of music there. David Pomeranz recorded his greatest hits CD there and it made platinum. I also noticed you wrote a song with him on his latest CD. I'm glad you're still out there performing and writing new songs. Maybe I'll catch one of your concerts when I'm in the LA area. Count me as one of your lifelong admirers. You really inspire people. Way to go, Harriet!

Norris, thanks for all the years of loyalty. Eat some decent Mexican food for me in San Antonio. I miss my Tex Mex out here in California.

Steve Sherokey

Hi Harriet:
Thanks so much for all your support (being tough with the criticism when required, but always with your special TLC). I'm sorry that I fell out of contact, but I've been as far away as Albania (the poorest Country in Europe, outside of the old Soviet Union). I know that falling out of touch, well, That Ain't No Way To Treat A Lady. I'm working on the thesis for my second Master's (in Applied Theology from Balamand University in Lebanon, to go along with my first in Rehabilitation Counseling from Northeastern), so that (along with working to pay the bills) has consumed much of my last four years. Thanks so much for the package on the Citizens Commission on Human Rights (and the subsequent card announcing your album, which I think that my Mom might have taken, lol). I would really like someday to play and sing with you in the same room (and not just over the phone from New York to California, but that is second best). Thanks so much to everything that you (and Nik's memory) stand for. You've graced my life.
Thinking of you,
Steve

Steve, I love it when students and colleagues keep in touch, especially after a long absence. Thank you for your lovely email.

David Matt Green

Hi Harriet!
You don't know me yet, but hopefully we will meet on October 2, as I just learned you will be part of the Naked Songwriters 4 Showcase in San Diego, CA, that night, and I have photographed the first three shows for the organizers.
I was a fan of yours years ago and have 2 or 3 of your early albums on vinyl! I had lost track of you in the years since then, so I'm excited to learn you are still around and still writing.
I'm really looking forward to seeing you perform live!
David :>

I am taking you advice and not giving up. I have been trying to contact you for over a month. I need class information. Thank you Harriet, and God bless you.

Hi Harriet. I don't know if you remember me but I communicated on email with you and even spoke with you over the phone a couple of years ago when I was trying to purchase your book and was told by someone in the publisher's office it was out of print when in fact it hadn't been released yet.
Anyway, I hope you are doing good and I'm sorry I missed you when you visited the Austin Songwriters Group. The book is great.
I'm editing a newsletter for a non-profit group in San Antonio called the Texas Music Coalition. I'm hoping to get your permission to run excerpts from your book in our newsletter giving you full credit, of course and plugging the book as well. Our newsletter is mailed out free of charge. I know our members would truly enjoy reading your inspiring work. Please let me know.

Dear Harriet,

What can I say? You wooed our audience in so many ways. By weaving in the stories behind your beautiful songs, by performing them with such emotion, and opening your life to us. Your band and singers, too-- beautiful musicians whose love of their craft shines.

We had an event because of you, and the event was a success because of you!

My husband, Steve, is now playing American Romance. Thank you so much for giving it to him. He forwarded it first to 'Dancing With My Father,' his favorite of the evening. We have an 11-year-old daughter... when she was born and bundled up for the first time, he danced around the room with her.

I was moved to tears by many of your songs, and I think many in the audience were. Your truth-telling, life-telling wisdom touches the heart.

We can never thank you enough for bringing us this evening. As we get the final tabulations in, we'll be in touch to let you know how much we were able to give to the home.

Sincerely,
Stacy

Hi Harriet,
I just got done reading an article you wrote entitled 'Oysters and Muses'. I can't thank you enough. I'm 45 and have been writing songs since I was 15. I've been happilly married for over 16 years to my wonderful wife. One of the biggest problems I've encountered is not being able to share some of the songs that I write with my wife who is also a wonderful vocalist. The reason being is that some are about past relationships or situations (where one of my best Muses resides) as you described in your article and she is very sensitive. When I read your article I was so pleased to see that these issues are not uncommon and in fact are quite normal for a song writer. I've tried to explain this situation(muse/inspiration)in the past to my wife with no luck. In fact, we just finished recording a song and I had the hardest time getting her to sing it because of the theme of the song. Her comment ' I wonder what your exgirlfriend will think when she hears 'HER' song' stung my heart as it is one of the best I've ever written. I love my wife and have no interest in my past girlfriend. I told my wife about this article and will read it to her later today. You explained my situation perfectly and I think it will help our relationship a lot for her to hear it explained as clearly as you did. Sorry this note was so long. Just wanted to express my gratitude.

I have such pleasure listening to your music. In the last few weeks as I drive it is always the CD that I reach for. Each piece is special and I sing along. Thank you so much

The music is remarkable--you can listen to it whenever. The music makes me feel happy and creative.

Dear Olivia,
You may not be my youngest fan (at 10), but you are the very first person to sign my new guestbook. And you are truly special to me. I hope to meet you one day soon! Thank you.
