About Me

I've done so many different things in my life so far work-wise and hobby-wise, and my interests vary, but they have mainly been in the fields of Music, Entertainment and Public Relations.THESE ARE ONLY A FEW of MY FAVORITE THINGS THAT I DO, and HAVE DONE SO FAR! * Professional Songwriter, Singer, Musician, Music Publisher. * Member of ASCAP (American Society for Composers, Authors and Publishers) for over 24 years. * Former member of the National Academy of Songwriters (NAS), Hollywood, CA - for two years, 1985 and 1986. * I've done numerous radio and television commercials and jingles, and performed in clubs as a singer, comedienne, and MC. I miss doing stand-up comedy and writing comedy...it is so much fun and so rewarding! I love hearing laughter, and love making people laugh! Performing comedy is more fun than singing!!* I started playing guitar at age 5...self-taught...and it became like another appendage! Drums (not so good at this) and various keyboards came next (not so great, but I can get my ideas across). I've tried violin, too! I'm not well versed with playing keyboards -- I'm dyslexic and the whole thing looks jumbled! But playing the guitar so far, is my favorite and most relaxing instrument of all. * I've entered various local, state, and national music or songwriting and vocal competitions, and have either Won or Placed in many of these Songwriting and Singing contests on Local, State and National Levels. * Winner of 3 Billboard Song Contest Awards, 1989. * Winner of 3 Music City Song Festival Awards in Nashville, 1985. * Former 1st Runner-up in the MISS AMERICA PRELIMINARY PAGEANT, 1977. * I've done promotional work, advertising and PR for not only singers and songwriters, but also for authors of books...mostly autobiographical. * For nearly 16 years, I used to be a Pharmacy Technician, and was also a Sales Associate for various companies. ** I love and enjoy helping others.
:-) ** For now, I'm busy promoting musical artists, along with promoting people who are talented in other creative and even spiritual avenues that I believe in. ** Currently, I'm working on "what" to do with the rest of my life. There is so much to do ~ once I'm in my new home...whether it be in California, or in another promising place with creative and prosperous ventures that will open up and embrace me. ** MOVING to California, or perhaps some other new and exciting "state of grace", is one of my many GOALS and DREAMS for this year.More "About Me" to come!

My Interests

Since I've lost too many close friends taken by God from this Earth way to soon ~ I value the friendships I have now, and those new ones I'm making along the way - through Myspace.
I enjoy exploring new things and learning computer graphics and web designing - computer games - and electronic jigsaw puzzles.
I also enjoy meeting new people - "musical people", and HELPING others when I can.

When time allows, I love and enjoy doing the following: Writing (short stories, manuscripts for novels, poetry, comedy sketches and jokes); Painting, Sketching, Wood Burning, Re-finishing Furniture; Digital Photography; Astronomy (I love looking at the stars and want a Meade Telescope!); Reading a good book; Listening to and Playing Music; Playing Guitars, Keyboards, Drums; Dancing; Entertaining and Performing; love writing comedic sketches and doing impersonations (that is...when I used to do Stand Up Comedy; going to Comedy Clubs; Collecting Autographs, Autographed Photos and Memorabilia of varying kinds---from Musical to Historical and Sports related pieces. (I have SO MANY things in my collection which I've been gathering for more than 37 years!) BUT, IT'S TIME TO SELL most ALL of them!

Please read the section "About Me". I'll be adding some more interesting career stats and pictures later!My PASSION also lies with KEEPING IN MIND, and HOPING and HELPING to FIND all those who are ABDUCTED, LOST, and ABUSED, or KILLED senselessly by a Drunk Driver or other senseless act of violence.I'm pleased and honored to be a partner with Lynn's affiliation program to help sell her CD's.

..Interview with LYNN CAREY SAYLOR by NOEL RAMOS c/o IndieGate and IMC.Here is a video which features my dear friend ~ LOURDES PITA ~ singing her beautiful Spanish song "Vida en Venecia".
Lourdes's song, which matches her lovely and romantic voice combined with lush musical arrangements, is featured and enhanced by beautiful scenic images, and personal photos, in this special video created by Lourdes's sister, MARIA ISABEL PITA. The song's lyrics are from a poem written by Lourdes's mother, world renowned poet, JUANA ROSA PITA.
Please WRITE Lourdes a comment on her Myspace page - OR - Watch this on YouTube and let Lourdes know what you think... by writing her there!

I'd like to meet:

~ THE WOMAN OF MY DREAMS!! ~ I'd LOVE to FINALLY meet my 'SOULMATE' ~ *whoever* SHE may be!! I know she's out there *somewhere*, and I'm wondering *WHO* she IS! God knows how I pray that He brings her into my life (and soon). I can't wait for that day to meet her!{ CÉLINE DION } I've seen her in concert a couple times and she's absolutely breathtaking to see "live" as a singer and performer! Her brother Michel and I sat together front row during one of her concerts in 1998! I'd REALLY love to hang out with her for a while and knock out some great songs for her. Along with Céline, her sisters and staff that I've been in contact with over the past several years, and who have been so kind to me ~ I'm very thankful and grateful to them for this wonderful opportunity. { LYNN CAREY SAYLOR } See my Music section on the left! :-) { WYNONNA } I'd LOVE to jam and collaborate with Wy! I saw the Judds perform their final tour in 1991, and then met publicly and privately with NAOMI JUDD in 1995, and would love to get re-acquainted with her. She's a charmer and a gabber! What a very smart, talented and funny lady she is to be around! Of course, I'd love to get back into acting someday, and co-star in a movie with ASHLEY JUDD; or at least meet her! { ANN and NANCY WILSON of "HEART" } I've already met these two 'GREAT WOMEN of ROCK' in the early 90's at one of their concerts! They gave me COMPLIMENTARY TICKETS for their show!! Yeah! They ROCK!! And there's a crazy story that goes along with this which is too long to put here. Just a hint: I embarrassed the CRAP out of myself during our first meeting! I was playing with Nancy's dog back stage while the girls took their showers and as soon as we were introduced...I barked at HEART!! Holy Crap! But, oh! What cool, talented and down to earth girls they are! You ladies ROCK my socks off! I love you!!ALSO, there a a few wonderful Myspace friends I would LOVE to meet who I feel so blessed to be in contact with ~ some of you which are on a daily basis either by email and phone. (You know who you are...and I love you!) I feel I've established a few friendships here which seem genuine, and I feel honored to be a part of your life. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your world.*** JOANNE RAMSAY aka JR ~ Hey my lovely UK songbird, I've got to see you in concert someday during your many travels to the US from the UK, and as we've already told each other many times...yes, Joanne, it will be my pleasure, as well, to finally meet you, too! (Remember that pool and the house in Beverly Hills you saw last spring? Dream about that house, baby! You just might get it someday! ;-)*** LYNN CAREY SAYLOR ~ Hey my sweet Lynn! Yes, we really "do" have to get together when I move out to California (or where ever my life is going to lead). Talking with you is awesome, but it will really be a pleasure for me to finally meet you in person. And, as we've touched on the subject, I would love the chance to be able to collaborate with you someday in the future, if that's possible, or heck...just be able to jam the night away playing our guitars! ;-) We've been through a hell of a lot already the past year or more. (God surely knows THAT!). And, you and I both know that only "good" things and great opportunities ARE coming your way. It's only just begun! ~ Always know and remember this, Lynn: With all the many conversations and tons of communication we've shared, I feel you are genuine in your heart and as a friend to me, even though we haven't met, yet, in person. You are such a beautiful young woman ~ both inside and out. You are a precious gem. You sparkle, and that special beautiful "Light" from within you shines so brightly. ;-)"SMALLVILLE" TRAILER FEATURING LYNN CAREY SAYLOR MUSIC

and the music of
Ira & George Gershwin -I love Lynn Carey Saylor's cool, or rather hot CD! ~ She has impeccable skills as a songwriter, both lyrically and musically, and it appears her songs have seemingly written themselves...as they are real stories that have come to life by way of her own life's personal journeys. ~ Her CD features the legendary talents of BRIAN MAY (guitarist of "QUEEN", who makes guest appearances on 2 songs with rhythm/lead guitar and background vocals), along with the ever-talented ERIC LOWEN and DAN NAVARRO who wrote "WE BELONG". Lynn's NEW songs appearing on here are PHENOMENAL, especially "BLINK OF AN EYE", "WHAT WE CAN'T HAVE", "I WASN'T A FRIEND", "NAKED TRUTH", and more importantly, an awesome special cover of "WE BELONG", a PAT BENTAR hit from 20-some years ago. Lynn's version really ROCKS, and touches my heart because of knowing her reason behind her recording this tune. During the past two or more years, she and I have become very close friends, and I feel honored and privileged to be among the many friends and fans that Lynn has. She is a beautiful and kind-hearted young woman - inside and out, I can certainly tell you that. And as genuine as her music is. ~ Her multi-musical talents as a songwriter, singer and musician impress me immensely, and I embrace this and who she is whole-heartedly. ~

Shot in April 2006, the video features in studio footage of the recording sessions for "We Belong." Also at the page, read a special message from Lynn about why she recorded this cover song on her otherwise completely self-written album. Or, click on the pic below to see the video, which is both awesome and touching, and it holds something within it that is VERY SPECIAL for both Lynn and Eric Lowen with their friendship, since Eric is fighting a hard battle with the debilitating disease ALS also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease. (God Bless you, Eric, and your family).
Here's an in-studio video clip I love of ERIC with LYNN for the recording of "WE BELONG". (Click ON the PIC!).

Here's my extremely musically gifted, and beautiful friend "JR", better known as JOANNE RAMSAY! JR's voice and music is hauntingly soft and ethereal music, with a true Rock edge! She is like no other artist I have heard (yet similar to Sarah Brightman in ways), and her phenomenal angelic, yet powerful voice is heaven to my ears. This young woman is certainly going places in her future, and is traveling across the USA and UK already. JR has style and grace, and is becoming a true "Diva from the UK" in my book. My Musical Hero! Celine mailed this to me days before I went to see her in concert Sept. 1998!! I've seen her TWICE!

Through many years of following Celine and her music, I have obtained SEVERAL autographed photos from her, which I hold very dear to my heart! What a great girl she is!

This is one of two autographs that I have of Barbra Streisand's!! What treasures these are!!

Nancy Wilson of HEART! ~ I met Ann and Nancy Wilson backstage after their concert in the early 80's, along with HEART'S (then) band members: Howard Leese (guitar/vocals/keyboards); Mark Andes (bass); and Denny Carmassi (drums). Their concert was totally mind blowing - AND "complimentary"! These girls are GREAT! I love them! Oh, what a ROCKING night to remember!
I Love CHER!

I love "great" comedies,
Adventure films, Sci-Fi, Spy and Intrigue; movies that really make you think, and that truly touch my heart, and inspire me.
More to think of.... Patrick Swayze and Sherri, May 1987! ~ Patrick and I met in April or May of 1987 and hung out several times a week for over 2½ months while each of us were working on a movie (he was making a film and I was auditioning for another one) and we promoted our music together for each film. He enabled me in a few years to get my first royalty check! And, YES! Patrick Swayze and I 'Dirty Danced' a lot at one of his cast parties late one night, and we ate a variety of good food and had a couple beers which he bought me to get me to loosen up a bit so I could dance better! HA! It worked!! What a great night for me to remember! I also was so honored that Patrick asked me to hear a new song he wrote and sang entitled, "She's Like The Wind", which eventually ended up in the film "DIRTY DANCING" and became a hit for him! ~ Thank you Patrick ~ Thanks for the DANCE lessons. ~ I LOVE you Buddy! (And, I love your Mom, Patsy, too. God Bless her, you and Lisa).

~ More to list later.

Heroes:

MARY KROPINAK - You have been my BEST friend for nearly 8 years now (as of the Thanksgiving 2000). What a blessing that day was for me. How many "thanks" I give. I am so grateful for you, Mar. ~ We have been through a hell of lot together through the the years. ~ You helped save my life - when no one else seemed to care. I can't ever thank you enough for that. ~ Thank you for always being here whenever I've asked and have needed you. Thank you for helping me be a better me, for being more honest, and for being "here" when so many others have walked away. You have the biggest heart and most beautiful soul, and are the strongest and most sincere person I know. I love you, Mary! God Bless you. :-) CHERI MOHN - My beloved friend, I love you, and I miss you so very, very much. I always will ~ you are in my heart. I still cannot figure out why God took you away so soon. I treasure the over 36 years we had together. "Maw", I wish you never left us. May you finally be resting so peacefully, and may you paint Heaven every day while you're there. CELINE DION - You are like a "Angel" to me. Everything you do musically as a singer and performer---which is absolutely breathtaking; everything you are and do as a woman who simply loves people, and the fact that you help bring so much joy and happiness, so much love and support to those who need it most all around the world without wanting anything in return! Your music always touches me, inspires me, and has kept me alive when I thought I was about to die - Literally. ("I thank God I'm alive!"). Thank you for always responding! You have helped me in your own ways, and I love you for that. You are my musical hero! OPRAH - Wow! What a woman...so dedicated and determined to make the lives of others so much better - all over the world. Thank you for empowering us all as women, and giving of yourself, of your valuable time, and of your personal wealth to others. You are a true humanitarian. Thank you for helping to make this world a much happier and safer place to live. LADY DIANA, Princess of Wales - for all that you/she ever was and did, and for all you/she could have been. May you be resting ever peacefully now, and also be watching over your beloved sons. ERIN BROCKEVICH - One woman ~ who worked the legal system to fight for others. She helped to save those in need, when no one else ever cared to. OUR TROOPS - ALL OUR WOMEN and MEN who are fighting overseas to help keep us safe. God bless each of You - And may you come home safely sometime soon. Please END the war NOW.
