Hello everyone! I just noticed I have been away from this forum for 11 years or so. I have written a lot of music since I first posted here, in a variety of genres including pop, country, rock, folk, blues, jazz, and sacred. Here are links to some of my albums:

Belated Happy New Year to everyone! Sorry I haven't been active lately, life has been pulling me in different directions: challenging but a good experience. I hope all goes well for you guys in 2020! Will keep in touch

Quotes applicable to songwriting:
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Talent is 99% perspiration, 1% inspiration
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again!!
I'd rather be a big fish in a small puddle than a small fish in a big puddle
And finally, told to me by the head drummer of Duran Duran on a Dallas Texas city bus in the 1980s:
NEVER let ANYONE take your dreams away from you. Even family and friends.. If you think you can make it in this business - go for it! (He was being sincere, not sarcastic or condescending). Thanks, bro, if you ever read this..

My "Lyric A Day" petered out, but only because I felt I needed to take a second, third, etc look at a few of them. Write on!

Well that's good. My issue with these lyric a day challenges is they focus on volume. To me, such a process should be about kick starting the creative processes and the drive to complete a draft. Thereafter, once rolling, try to regularly start new lyrics and try new ideas, but switch your emphasis onto quality and completing the lyrics full stop. Just my two cents

Wow... we have our own feed now?

We'll I am glad you are stoked and re-lit lol
Other than goals for a lyric a day, do you have any goals or aims? They don't need to be fancy, or hugely ambitious, but I find having goals makes a huge difference to ongoing motivation. That could be something as simple as filling your notebook with lyrics through to placing a song, or becoming a multi-trillion selling writer.... reality of those goals is a separate matter!

Some days, everything seems to get in the road of making music... like the world is conspiring against it!

I've lost my brains! My flash drive with all my lyrics is MIA...Ugh! Now I have to find the external hard drive with them on it. 💩 👀

Does anyone have any suggestions on what brand of guitar to buy? Gibson or Taylor?

UGH! I don't understand how someone on twitter who has 380 followers gets Shane MacNally to retweet one of their tweets!! I'm so mad right now!!!
