Hi Brian,
Forgive my absence. I think the lyric writing tips stand up, MAB is well versed on what it takes & has plenty to add. The music biz is a paradox, opportunity is wide open but it might be more challenging than ever to make a descent from just music.
There’s one book called “Do What You Love and The Money Will Follow.”
There’s another called “Should I Do What I love or Do what I Do so I can do what I love on the Side?”
This is the path I’ve chosen. There’s some careers where you can be exceptional and still barely eek out a living and there’s other careers where you can be average and do well.
MAB can probably tell you Nashville ain’t what it used to be, but it’s still possible to get cuts.

"We are all millionaires, billionaires even, because right now we have today. And today is worth more than all the wealth we can imagine. So spend today wisely. Spend tomorrow wisely. Enjoy the wealth of today, and realize it is worth far more than all the money and possessions of tomorrow and beyond." -Brian Austin Whitney
