whenever I finish a lyric, put it to music and make up a demo I am satisfied but always wonder if it is as good as it can be. I am limited by my own likes and dislikes and I am looking now for some coaching. If any here have used such services in the past or are using one now what can you tell me about your experiences. I realize that this is a pay for service but how do you know which ones, and there are many here in cyberland, are worth it?

DOUGLASS According to Pro writers that I know , and it's something I agree with the best way to write a song is to do both the music and lyrics together, (at the same time) I work that way and have had more satisfaction , than trying to work with someone's finished lyric
This method assumes one can do both, Another method is to put a new lyric to an existing hit song, and then change the music from the original , this method can work as well, as the Pro Writers fully understand Repetition , Meter and Rhyme Schemes as well as so much more We can learn from everyone even Bad Writers of Poor Songs Above all enjoy your writing also try writing in as many genres as you can

Without the right music your clever lyrics will never be heard, if you want success be prepared to re write many times and even change the meter you chose originally

"If you are stuck in your musical composing, be unreasonable. Change your environment. If you are stuck in your lyrical efforts, instead of forcing the same old words out, force yourself to do unreasonable things." -Brian Austin Whitney
