Fellow fawmers and fawmettes!
Happy August everybody... we hope your summertime songwriting is going
fabulously! (Unless you're in the southern hemisphere, in which case
we hope your wintertime writing rocks.) Three quick things for our
lyrical lovelies...
1. SUBMIT TO "FAWMPILATION" #6!
You have 2 weeks left to submit your awesome FAWM 2010 songs to this
year's annual "fawmpilation" CD! We'd love to have as many submissions
as possible, so we have an great slew of tunes to listen to and choose
from. We look forward to receiving yours! The deadline is September 1,
and you can learn all about how to submit your tracks here:

2. SXSW 2011!
FAWM founder Burr Settles is in the running to speak again at the
South by Southwest 2011 Conference in Austin Texas. The proposed talk
includes lessons we've learned from seven years of organizing the FAWM
challenge. To help make this happen, please click the following link,
vote "yes," and leave an encouraging comment to the program committee:

3. DONATE!
It may be the off-season, but we at FAWM work year-round to make plans
for the next year's FAWM! Donating as little as $5 is a great way to
help fuel the FAWM fires and get ready for next season. You can do
that by going to
http://fawm.org, and clicking the "Donate" button on
the left. Thanks for your support...
Also, if you're looking for something to kick-start your summertime
songwriting, remember

Love and Rock Stars,
FAWM
