So, you want to write and release a song?

Turns out, it's pretty easy.

The majority of successful songwriters say you just have to listen to a lot of songs and write a lot of songs.


Music platforms like Spotify make publishing almost effortless.


So what’s the problem?


Maybe simply churning out song after song and releasing it isn’t enough.


You want to write a compelling song that moves people and leaves a legacy.


But how?


First, stop getting hijacked by bullshit advice and promises.


All those quick tips about writing a song in a day or words don't matter or another beat sheet formulaic approach to churning out another draft that you’re going to throw away.


Second, focus on developing the skills that will make you an award-winning songwriter.


As a Story Grid Certified Editor, I believe the gap between your current writing and your potential can be bridged by learning a finite set of skills - you need to master these and blend them with your unique voice. That's how you will craft song lyrics that make you feel accomplished.


It’s hard work, but it’s worth it.

I can show you how.
