MH: Being in music is really a tough job, especially if you
                are  doing  it  all  yourself.  What  advice  would  you  give
                anyone thinking of pursuing music?

                PJ: Never quit. Surround yourself with other dreamers, doers,
                musicians,  artists,  and  people  that  believe  in  you.  Play
                anywhere you can. Practice. Write. Feel. Let the music take you
                where it's going to take you. The BEST advice I can give you I
                heard in an Old Dominion song in 2017 and have lived my last
                3  years  by  it:  ‘Chase  after  the  dream  don't  chase  after  the
                money.’  My  dream  has  taken  me  to  places  I  never  even
                dreamed!

                MH: Pamela, I really appreciate you, your music, and your
                cause. Is there anything else you would like to share?

                PJ: Just a huge thank you to all the venues that invite me to play
                around the country, the fans that are listening to my songs, the
                people that have let us stay in their homes or paid for a hotel
                room, the bands that let me open, the fans who will hand me an
                extra $20 for gas money, and to all the ‘little people’ that never
                stopped believing in me and my music. YOU are the reason I
                do what I do.
