Feast or Famine

I hesitated to post this since 9,000 is such a nice round number, but...
Awhile back some folks including me were lamenting the lack of inspiration, motivation to write songs.
Now all of a sudden every chord I play on my guitar is leading to a song base.
My list of unfinished songs is growing exponentially.
Stop the madness!
Or at least let me finish one before starting ten more!

    It's good to know that you've been inspired ... perhaps over-inspired?  I still think it's a good thing.

    I think I was part of that thread Greg.

    Must be something in the air, or the time of year, but I had two songs come to me last week. One has really got me pumped.

    Funny how they just show up at your doorstep unexpectedly isn't it? :)

    That's great news Greg!. I've been on a slump but woke up at 5:30am this morning with a song brewing. A good sign I hope

    Way to go, Greg!  After my slump, I managed to finish 3 1/2 collabs this summer.  And that's with working 70 hours a week.  So I'm pumped too.  :)  (granted, they're rather simple, but at least I'm doing SOMETHING.)

    Ok, now concentrate on and finish one, Greg. 

    Then the next one.  :) But keep all the ideas in separate files.  :)

    That's the rear view mirror, Greg. He's coming around to lap you again


    Enjoy the muse. You never know how long she is going to smile on you.
