Free eBook: Breakthrough Songwriting: How to Hammer Out a Song Lyric (Song Frameworks Book 2) [Kindle Edition]

“How to Hammer Out a Song Lyric” is much more than a book about writing song lyrics. It about digging deep into our mental faculties and finding much more than we thought possible to write about.
The goal of this book is to provide understanding about the intellectual struggles many writers face. We should first understand that our goal is to “write meaningful lyrics” but our struggle is with “developing ideas”. The entire songwriting process is based on ideas, so when we run out of them we find ourselves facing a two foot thick brick wall. That’s a terrible place to be.
“How to Hammer Out a Song Lyric” gives us the information we need to break through the brick wall, or better yet, it enables songwriters to work through them. When we find ourselves facing that brick wall we are, in reality, at a place where we are simply out of ideas. With Chapters like “Fanning the Spark of Inspiration”, or “Working in the Shadow of Inspiration” not only will you be able to break through trouble areas, you will be able to develop more and better ideas. This helps the songwriter to not only finish a song but make it a more interesting song.
Once you develop the idea, it’s necessary to put that idea into a set form which is measured by the different parts of the song, syllable counts, and rhymes. This book will also walk you through that process which will in turn enable you to work past that dreaded brick wall. Song Frameworks calls it “Hammering Out a Song Lyric”. This is because the ideas which you worked so hard for, have to be hammered into syllable counts and rhymes in order to make it an inspiring song.
“How to Hammer Out a Song Lyric” concludes with the “Final look at Your Song”. When we value what we write we will always give it that final consideration of ensuring that it’s been completed to our high standards. This will explain what to look for and how to find any areas that need improvement.
The Author, George Martinez, is the founder of Song Frameworks. He has spent years training and developing songwriters. It’s has been a labor of love to develop tools which help songwriters such as yourself, become the songwriter you want to become.
