6 months

No, not my favourite song by Hey Monday, but a song of my own.

It's been 6 months since I said goodbye to songwriting, temporarily. As it so often happens, things, thoughts, epiphanies if you will, come to me at the most unexpected times, often the most inconvenient times when a pen and paper are nowhere to be seen and a recording device is inappropriate. That or I'm in the bathroom, drying my hair - that's happened a few times now... And that's how it happened for me a few days ago. Yes, I am writing again. That is to say, I wrote lyrics and have a melody - I'm still working on the arrangement and chords that work best (very backwards really). This might be a once-off; maybe there won't be any more songs for another 6 months... God, I hope not. Please, no.

So, next post is the new piece. As I said, it's really more of a work in progress, but the lyrics probably won't change, except for perhaps the order of verses, which changes each day. Let me know if you like it...
