I found this to be a fantastic and engaging course! With straightforward and constructive advice, it encourages you not to give up on your songwriting passion! ''Three hours and twenty-five years'' to write a song, sounds right! I highly recommend this course, for any songwriter out there, who like me, doesn't lose faith, and never gives up!
