Not too much to report this time. I’ve been spending more time writing than making sawdust. However, I did purchase some more hardware for several thumb pianos (Mbiras). I plan to make two more “mini” 8 note thumb pianos and two more standard sized ones. Also, one of them will be electric. I made an electric one several years ago, and it sounded great amplified and unamplified.
I still haven’t finished my next mini hog nose psaltery. It’s got very little left to go on it, and I need to take the time to complete it. Also, I haven’t finished carving several dulcimer noters that I roughed out months ago. When I finish my next book, I can then take a break and work in my studio again.
To see my novels and books, check out my other website at www.roncook-author.com.
Until next time…
