So the year before last an on-line friend and collaborator wrote a song every week for the year. Actually she wrote more than that but she managed to post at least one song every week. That's a lot of consistency right there. You can listen to her music here: Deborah Linden
Yesterday Billy Sea posted on facebook that he was gonna do it and asked other songwriters to join him. Well I'm all for a challenge so here I go. I'm gonna state up front that I will probably fail at posting a new song for every week of the year in 2010. I really need to focus on recording instead of songwriting. But songwriting is what I enjoy and songwriting is what I do so here I go writing songs. We'll see how many weeks I can get a new song written.
Last night Billy suggested writing a song a week and I wrote this song and recorded it in about an hour. It's not my best work and it has some flaws, but I do enjoy speed songwriting. Sometimes you get some pretty rough gems out of the process.

Blame Paul....he posted this on FB and I had to listen. You write songs and I write books...how interesting. I liked the song. Jeremy said that it was sad and if you put the song to a movie it would make me cry. Keep on writing...you have such a great talent! Best wishes on getting the song a week down! :o)
