Results! Why, man, I have gotten a lot of results. I know several thousand things that won’t work.

I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.

~Both Quotes by Thomas Edison

I’m honored and humbled that so many of you are willing to give 3.5 minutes of your day to listen to my latest writing disaster. I feel like I’m asking so much for you to hit play, listen intently, and then offer feedback. But your feedback is becoming one of the most integral parts of this songwriting adventure that I’m on.

You are the road signs, directing me home when I’ve lost my way.

This is why I torment you with lousy scratch recordings of a song I’d barely finished 15 minutes sooner and hardly know the melody to. You hear things in my songs that I don’t. And how you respond helps me separate what to keep and what to throw away.

Last week I posted a song and only 1 of you said “I like this one” – I was relieved to know that most of you probably didn’t like it. I was beginning to think y’all were flattering me, but the silence said that you don’t always like them. This is good.

A few weeks ago y’all were ALL OVER a bridge to one of the songs. Man, that was an interesting day. But I LOVED it.

And, one time I mentioned that I didn’t even like a song I’d posted, but  y’all pounced on it – telling me not to change a thing. Once again, you must’ve heard something that I didn’t.

I say all this to say THANK YOU for your feedback! Your HONEST feedback.

It’s what will make me a better songwriter.
