I talked with a man about writing songs. He said he started out just doing humorous songs for his buddies. That way it wasn’t so intimidating. Eventually he worked up to writing serious songs.
I really found that helpful. In fact it demystified the process enough that I actually did get a song worked up that wasn’t humorous. I don’t consider it finished yet, but it’s more or less a song.
I do want to do a humorous one eventually also.
