That time someone wrote music about how monotone I am… 😅 Hi Reader! Have you ever wished you could trade in parts of yourself for an “upgrade”? I used to. Back in my early twenties, a composer friend told me he’d written a piece inspired by me. At first, I was deeply honored (I mean, how cool is that?) until he explained his inspiration: My monotone voice. Ouch. Later, as an elementary school teacher, my principal told me I needed to be “perkier.” They even said the kids didn’t understand me...
