A critical success, the effort was warmly received from widely diverse sources such as Steve Wozniak and National Book Award-winning author Tim OBrien, who wrote: Korbys keen control of narrative voice is spot-on in each of these stories distinctive, disarming, entertaining and completely convincing.

Korbys latest project is a scripted television series called Morse Code, which he created, produces and stars. Featuring new original music with each episode, Morse Code takes an intimate, authentic look into the life and challenges of an indie folksinger in the present age. Korby raised more than 50k from private investors and is filmed the pilot episode in February 2022 in East Nashville. His team is working toward a Nashville premiere in June 2022.
