Songwriting 101 (Part 4): How to Conquer Writer's Block
Here are the 3 key ways to conquer writer's block:
1) Step away from the song and do something else
-Sometimes it helps to put the song down and do something else. When you come back to the song, you'll have a fresh perspective.
-Record the song first before you put it away. This way, when you come back to it, you'll hear what you worked on and it will give you new ideas for the song.
2) Keep writing until you can't write any more.
-When you return to the song again from your break, keep writing. Even if you don't like what you write, write it anyway. You can always edit it later. The most important thing is to write it out and get it out of your head. This is called, free form writing.
-There's a wealth of information from your free form writing, perhaps another song.
3) Establish a writing schedule
-It's helpful if you have a set day and time for your writing. Set aside a certain block of time where you will focus and concentrate on your song.
-Remove distractions and find a comfortable space of your choice where you can write your songs.
Finally, study your favorite hit songs. What works for the song? What's the most memorable? Why do you like it? Take what you like and kind your own style. Good luck with your songwriting and your hit song!
Best wishes to you as you take your voice to the next level!
