Digging in

Writing a blog about songwriting has made me realize how much I love digging into a topic: researching, thinking, writing, writing some more, responding, debating, and building content.

It’s so satisfying to mastermind an enormous resource, one page at a time. Whenever I learn something, my readers have the potential to also. And whenever my more vocal readers spot something I’ve missed, I learn. And we are all better off for having gathered together.

A blog can be just a byproduct of a learning process. A blog is like a venue. What takes place within that venue is up to you: it can be like a café, a library, a bustling marketplace, or like two armchairs in front of a fire.

If you don’t have one, get one.
