you know there are a lot of great songs out there that are 2 or even 1 chord. Maybe just try to learn one of those and see if it brings you joy.

@Bud6333 I starting writing my own music several years ago for the first time and have used a couple of resources. One that Tony mentioned on an Accoustic Tuesday episode on Song Writing is Andrea Stolpe. I find her suggestions helpful. You might also look on facebook in your area as there are often local song writing groups. One final suggestion that has helped me is looking for open mic events in your area that are focused on singer songwriters. You can perform or just attend and meet people who will likely know of local resources. I encourage you to keep pursuing writing your own songs – I have received a lot of enjoyment from it. Here is Andreas Instagram site

I really struggled playing with a pick and either strummed with fingers or finger picked. My breakthrough came with the following habit. Anytime I went to guitar center I would grab a couple of their free branded picks they keep at the cash register. Pretty soon I had them in my pockets, in the car, around the house. I would not play with them – I would just hold them as if I was playing. Even driving the car. After about a month I could hold a pick as if it was an extension of my hand vs feeling foreign. I can now play with a pick with a lot more confidence. Give it a try!

@DiscostewLA Music is medicine for the soul ! I dont have words to express how much it has helped me emotionally over the past couple of years to have the TAC lessons, a guitar to play, and this supportive community! Thanks for listening!

@bugmeist thanks so much for listening and kind feedback. One of the first songs I wrote and seems to strike a chord with a lot of folks who have similar relationships with parents or other important figures in their lives. So far there have been listeners in over 20 countries around the world.

@stevieblues he was a great man. He passed in 2020 and I can honestly say that writing music to express my feelings helped me in so many ways to process grief in a healthy and healing way !

@Loraine Wow – I have never had someone describe the song with so much insight as you have provided. You are spot on to what I was feeling and trying to convey. Thank you so much for listening with so much intention and sharing your feedback – that means a lot to me ! Thanks!

@stevieblues thanks ! TAC just keeps adding to my tool chest and I try to apply something new each time a song is released. This set of songs had some big steps forward for me.
