Here’s why it works so well ⬇️
Most writers start writing their lyrics before they have a clear idea on how they feel about the topic of the song…
Topic writing - which is where you just write anything and everything that comes to mind about your song topic - will help you gain clarity!
It’s almost like journaling…
You know how we sometimes don’t really know how we feel or what we really think about something?
If you just take 10 minutes to sit down and write anything and everything down that comes to mind you will gain so much more clarity.
It’s the same thing for your songwriting.
Yes, it takes 10 minutes to do this before you start writing your song…
But I promise you it’ll save you more than 10 minutes in your overall process.
Topic writing is step 2 of my 4 step lyric writing formula.
