Hi all,
I'm stepping in for David this week. He'll be back soon.
This week let's take a pretty well known song from any era, any style and write your own song over it as a skeleton. Try to keep the rhyme scheme the same, including internal rhymes and honor the syllable count. This is a fantastic way to overcome writer's block.
Don't tell us what song you've copied...yet. Let's see if anyone can guess.
Peace and play well with others.
Nick
