In this episode of the Songwriter Theory Podcast, we're talking about how we can write more songs in 2024.

Obviously we also want to up our quality of song, but we also want to become more efficient at writing songs, more quick to eliminate blockers and bottlenecks, and just have the best songwriting year of our lives in 2024.

So we're going to break down a few ways to do that.

We'll talk about:

  • Incorporating Songwriting Sprints
  • Getting in the Habit of Doing What's Needed, Not Just What We most feel like
  • Getting better at consistency (doing little shifts instead of heavy lifts)
  • Having a songwriting process (or several go-to processes!) so we aren't wasting time with cognitive dissonance about what to do next

Let's talk about it!
