Here I go jumping off into the blogosphere! It's a brave new world here at Viva La Voice! Since some of you may have found this blog yesterday and read my first entry 'the quick brown fox', let me assure you that I'm a bit more creative than that template text would have let you believe.
Please check back often, as I love sharing my daily epiphanies. In fact, I told my fabulous Webmaster, Nashlah, at Buzz Booster, that if no one hears from me for a few months, they'll probably find me unshowered and surrounded by piles of discarded Starbuck's coffee cups....blogging!
Just finished teaching my Songwriting class tonight. It was a great class; we worked on how to get unstuck. I have a formula for that! Well, more like a 'process' that will take you from stymied to stellar! The secret is to open up the mind, quiet the self-critic, and basically, just let your self brainstorm the line, word, image or feeling that will lead you to your song concept. Then the overall concept drives the rest of the creative process. Okay, it's a bit more involved than that; please look for my EBook soon on this subject!
Well, too much fun for my first posting. I'll have photos of my recent workshops and this week's KTMP showcase for my fabulous songwriting students soon!
