Here's my baby. Beat up and word down, but still sounds like a dream.

I might do it a little backwards, but I find it easiest and most fluid to write the lyrics first. It comes out as somewhat of a poem, but I'm usually able to explore whatever instrument I'm using and find something that fits pretty well. Sometimes I have a little piece of melody in my head while I'm writing, but usually it's strictly words first. And if what I wrote just isn't working with the music, that I've learned to not force anything, so I tuck it away somewhere and try again.
