Cat Ellington Celebrates 49th Birthday With Release Of Memoirs in Gogyohka

Quill Pen Ink Publishing, 2019

28th November 2019, THURSDAY
2:28 p.m.

Dear guests,

Memoirs in Gogyohka is finally here. Years in the making, the effort was inspired by my library of diaries and features dozens of entries that were selected to feature at random.

Every seven years, my birthday falls on Thanksgiving Day. And today just so happens to be the seventh year since the last time I celebrated my special day on Thanksgiving. It was always a big deal when my birthday fell on the holiday in years past, and today is no different. My publisher choosing this day to release Memoirs in Gogyohka (in recognition of my 49th year of life) is a HUGE deal. And it will be forever special.

Thank you, Quill Pen Ink Publishing. And congratulations on this new addition to your literary catalog: for it is a great honor.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. Stay in love and be incredibly blessed.


Love,

Cat

Cat Ellington's "I Do" Becomes Best 3 Finalist At 2019 Vegas Movie Awards

2019 Vegas Movie Awards | Category:
Best Song: "I Do"
Written by Cat Ellington

2019 Vegas Movie Awards Update:

In a spirit of genuine elation, I make known the 2019 Vegas Movie Awards' decision to promote my song, "I Do"—which is featured on the Dual Mania Original Motion Picture Soundtrack—to a Best 3 Finalist spot at its June event in dazzling Las Vegas.

  Thank you so much, team Vegas Movie Awards. The year in which I composed "I Do" had been one of the roughest of my life; and it is a work that provided me with a certain "emotional" comfort during that time. So these honors represent a great deal to me as its creative mother.

On behalf of the Black Jaguar Music Company, I extend to all of you my sincerest gratitude for your kind recognition of this singular song work which came into being through it.
   
Thank you. 😊

Despite its having been the recipient of shade — courtesy of the so-called "Queen of Shade" with the release of her 2017 single, "I Don't" — "I Do," one of my most cherished musical babies, has just been selected as a semi-finalist in the category for Best Song at the 2019 Vegas Movie Awards in stunning Las Vegas.

(Clears throat)

 My gratitude speaks as follows:

There is simply no gift given to Man on Earth greater than that of songwriting. And I've been thanking God for implanting it within me since I was all of ten years old.

I am extremely proud to announce that the Vegas Movie Awards jury panel has selected my song titled "I Do" (featured on the Dual Mania Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) as a semi-finalist in the Best Song Category at its June 2019 event.

Thank you, Vegas Movie Awards, for your kind recognition of both this extraordinary craft and me as a diverse creative in it.

Also, I would like to extend a very special congratulations to my remarkably gifted and badass producer, Princeton Brown, for his outstanding collaborative efforts on the production of this beautiful song.
