Hey I am the owner of the site <a href="http://www.bloggingmuses.com" target="_blank">Blogging Muses</a> and came across this via my referrer logs. Thanks for including my site with some of those great sites.
For David137, I have a few articles that I feel work really great for someone just starting out writing songs:
<a href="http://www.bloggingmuses.com/archives/good_artists_copy_great_artists_steal_so_do_songwriters_000448.php" target="_blank">Good artists copy, great artists steal. So do songwriters.</a>
Helps discuss how you can use existing songs to come up with original songs.
<a href="http://www.bloggingmuses.com/archives/songwriting_for_beginners_roundup_000290.php" target="_blank">Songwriting For Beginners - A Series</a>
Helpful for new songwriters, starting from the assumption you know nothing about songwriting.
<a href="http://www.bloggingmuses.com/archives/capturing_song_ideas_roundup_000389.php" target="_blank">Capturing and Remembering Song Ideas</a>
Another series of articles on how to remember songwriting ideas that pop into your head at inopportune times.
<a href="http://www.bloggingmuses.com/songwriting_tips/" target="_blank">Songwriting Tips</a> Group Project
A place where everyone contributes songwriting tips in exchange for liberal promotion of their own personal projects. There are tips there for everyone.
Hope that helps, and if there is anything else I can do or if you have site suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks!
Don Mak
