Renee's Art Progression

  What are the private components? I don't think there has really been any private components of the final project. Even the behind-the-scenes work has been done with other people. To get the music on the CDs, I had help from a friend of mine who is very tech-savvy. He informed me what equipment I would need and how to move the files over.

Even if the feeling was caught on by the reader, they might say it/imagine in it in a different dialect/way of saying it. There's so many ways to say one sentence that there is no way ...
