Hey @adonibrazoban! Cool article! I myself am a song writer and I can definitely relate with your article here. I think one cool tip, is to have a recorder or your phone ready to record a lyric or melody at any given time. I recall writing songs while I was on the bus. Super random, but also turned out to be a great song.

Thanks for commenting, later on in the posts that I will upload about composing songs I will talk about it.

Cool! Looking forward to it. Perhaps you could listen to one of my songs and give you comments

I will do it
