I know that - I used to live there! That's why I included a link to her
blog where people could find out more about her if they were even
remotely interested after reading about her and hearing her sing. I
don't know if she even knows yet where in California she wants to go -
maybe follow the music?

Yes, I realize that too. That's why I included her bio which shows she
graduated from a jazz school, and why I included the youtube link, which
shows her singing jazz. Also note that she declined the offer from the
rock star.

I know she might not be the perfect fit for this list but I thought
there might be some people here who would be interested in at least
communicating with her and perhaps offering her some advice (via her
blog - not through me) after hearing her sing. If not, well then she's
no worse off than if I didn't try.

All the best,
Beth
