(Feb 27/09) I love "February is Album Writing Month". It's a personal challenge, in which you attempt to write 14 songs (an album's worth) in 28 days. The first time I did it I struggled to write even a few. The next year, I managed to squeak out 15. Last year I wrote 23. This year, I wrote 32. More than rising to the challenge of finding ideas, sketching them & uploading a rough sample of your first draft... the community of FAWM is amazing. The energy and creativity is contagious. FAWM has helped me to be more prolific. It's taught me to write without worrying about the end result, knowing the process of rewriting and honing will come later.
