Lisa, thanks for writing back! I haven't put anything up yet. I don't even know how yet, lol.I'm still just trying to get parts of my songs/poems in place. I have so many questions about phrasing, which is hard without a melody in mind! So, I started counting syllables and it seems to be helping to keep me on track. Now I'm trying to determine of one of the stanzas should/ could be the chorus (knowing that the melody or rhythm would be altered) I don't seem to write the chorus first like so many folks do. I start with an idea or phrase. And I write ad nauseam till something starts to stand out. Its messy! Any advice? Best of luck on your plans continuing.

Hope you do go Lisa! I'm brand new. On Songstuff, which is how I got here, but I've read many of your wonderful lyrics already! Wish I could hear the music! I sense we may have some experiences in common...
