Songwriting for Dummies CHEAT SHEET

So it’ s a brand new year and although the past can’t be undone, we can always choose to focus on the present and work toward the future!

That being said, I’ve been working a lot, though I may not have a song as of yet to show for it. One of the things I’ve been doing is reading. For Christmas, my beloved got me “Songwriting for Dummies,” although she assures me she doesn’t think I’m a dummy

It’s been a good read so far, and if nothing else is gotten me to stop WAITING for the perfect song to come to me to just get down and just start putting ideas on paper (or rather my evernote app). I’ve finished 5 chapters of the book, have written 5 different verses, and 8 different songtitles/ideas.

This next weekend I’m going to be doing another weekend songwriter workshop with Tina Shafer and Jenny Bruce. Super excited and can’t wait to see some of the other songwriters again! This time it’s just me and the fiddle. No guitar. I have one song that works, but I’d like to try and write something new. Let’s see what I can do! . . . and . . . go!
