Tony, thanks for sharing your “Dirty Little Secret”. Songwriting IS fun!

And working with your friends makes it even more so. I’m the luckiest duck I know.

I want to recapture the magic of initial inspiration.

It is a feeling you just can’t replace ? Even though recording a song I have written is exciting, nothing compares to the high I get while creating that song. I’m so thankful!

Thanks, Pete.
I guess it could go back the other way too! I’ll be looking and listening…
Best wishes,
Tony

I always said that when it stopped being fun I would stop writing. And guess what? Writer’s block is my only friend, it’s become a frustrating pain in the butt, the novelty has worn off and it’s not fun any more. So I am now an ex-songwriter.
