Hey Graham, I got the songwriting modules to improve my writing output. I use to write at least 16 bars and a hook from about middle school until the end of high school. Life isn’t as easy as it once was and I have limited time so I figured I’d give it a shot. Haven’t even started the modules just been studying the bonus items and references you have and already can tell that the modules will be life changing. Thanks for all you do, looking forward to the modules!!!
Awesome! Can’t wait to hear your new music! Keep me posted. 🙂
I’m falling in love with the course I’m taking.
Thank you so much!!
I live for comments like this! Thank YOU so much!! 🙂
Wow I LOVE this Graham!!!! What a way to start the day focusing on the one thing that matters! Songwriting!!!:-)
