So as I mentioned previously, this blog is thanks to a class assignment, specifically, my New Media class. Here we are hard at work on our blogs:
While we are indeed, hard at work, I have been thinking of a way to make this blog assignment more challenging on myself.
As my friends and family know, I have no problem giving my opinion and speaking as long as my breath will hold, so I have decided my challenge will be including songs I have written, are working on and even quotes I have decided to use as inspiration while writing songs.
The difficulty with sharing my musical works is that any successful musician/songwriter only becomes successful by exposing a part of their innermost secrets and feelings. This can be especially difficult because it means you have to put words and music to feelings or situations you may not understand.
Writing songs is a lot more difficult than it may seem, but half the battle is getting over your own fear of admitting everything you are or believe in your music. So maybe that will become more of my challenge. I guess we'll find out.
Thanks for taking the challenge of sharing your music and lyrics with us. I know I am really excited, for it is always the lyrics of a song that make me connect to an artist. Being able to relate is key for me. I'm excited to read your stuff, and thanks again for having courage!
