This blog is an attempt to document the process of songwriting, so that I and you, if you are a composer, will be able to write things better and quicker.
Lets see where this will go as we explore creativity....
Comments: practice or write?

I hear you brother, it's difficult getting this lightbulb to go on & off. Sometimes it's all I can do to keep from jumping out my second story window.
Indeed, one of the worst things for me is this: I have a clear space of time to write in, all the gear is working correctly, and I try and try and pound something out and not a freaking thing will emerge. And I can sit there for hours like that, just staring at the screen.
At some point, I will either just write it off as a bad day or if I am smarter, I will just switch to working on another piece.
Lucky for me my studio is in the basement, can't throw myself out the window!
