Fawm (February Album Writing Challenge) Starts In 5 Days!

[DonnaMarilyn]

Folks, if any of you are feeling the need of a little inspiration as we approach the usually dull month of February (February being to the year what Monday is to the week ), you might want to take part in the annual FAWM challenge, beginning February 1st.

The official goal is to write 14 songs/lyrics/instrumentals in 28 days, but it's a personal challenge, not a competition. Thus, it doesn't matter whether you write one song/lyric/instrumental or 14 (or more). Imagine 28 days of inspiration, motivation, delirium, hilarity, and insanity, and ending up with the most amazing results.

The forums are heaps of fun, with people commenting on each other's work (not critiquing, simply commenting, praising), and inspiring one another to further greatness. A lot of collaborating takes place as well, so it's a tremendous way to link up with other composers and/or lyricists.

The goal is not to post finished products. The revising and polishing up can be done after FAWM. The aim is simply to get something down, so that you wind up with at least one more lyric/song you wouldn't have done if you hadn't joined the challenge.

The site's being revamped at the moment, but will be up in the next couple of days. In the meantime, you can join the Facebook group or send an email to be sent a notice of when the site's active. http://fawm.org

I hope to see a few of you there.
