Howdy Folks,
Just want to let ya know that I am still picking every day and actually am making progress NOT much but some... I still am having problems with my motor control BUT I know I am getting better and the picking has helped this condition emensly... I would had hoped that I would have had a couple of songs under my belt by now but this is not the case... I do practice EVERY DAY and even though I am not making much music, I am addicted to this thing called BANJO! I guess the bottom line is not so much how good you are progressing but that you are enjoying the ride there and THIS IS WHAT I AM DOING!

It is addicting, and "enjoying the ride" is so, so important! I played guitar for over 20 years before starting on banjo, and when I started banjo I made the mistake of focusing on quickly getting to a point where I could play songs instead of really getting deep into learning and studying what a banjo can do. The songs came pretty easy because I had so much guitar knowledge ingrained, but lately I've stepped back and "enjoyed the ride" of really getting to know banjo.
Keep doing what you're doing!
