Dear Songwriters, Artists, Composers, and Producers,
For many songwriters, birthing a great lyric can be agonizingly slow and painful. Yep, sort of like childbirth! Well, any mom would tell you that it’s not even close, but you get my point; It can be daunting, slow,
and yes, even painful to write a great lyric. But it doesn’t have to be!
If you’ve ever had writer’s block or find that it takes so long to craft a great lyric, you miss opportunities for TV and film placements because the window of opportunity is often short.
Robin Frederick—author
of the best-selling books, Shortcuts to Hit Songwriting and Shortcuts to Songwriting for Film
& TV—packs the ballroom year after year at TAXI’s annual conference, the Road Rally.
When you see and hear the interview I did with her for this week’s episode of TAXI TV, you’ll understand exactly why that is!
I asked Robin to join me for an interview about writing lyrics,
and she suggested that we talk about lyric “speed writing.” That doesn’t mean you can bang one out in 15 minutes, but she’ll explain how to approach the process in a way that doesn’t stop you every 15 minutes to ponder a line for an hour… or a day!
You’re going to love this episode if you write lyrics, so grab a notepad and get ready to streamline and speed up your lyric-writing process
with a woman who never fails to teach techniques that elevate everybody’s songwriting craft!
