I'm working on my first album, which I hope will be ready for recording by summer, and I'm undecided on whether I should have one of those fancy "self titled" albums or give in an actual name. If I do give it a name, should it be obscure and have nothing to do with any of my songs titles, or should it be the classic name-it-after-a-song-from-the-album albums? These are questions that must be answered.
Speaking of my album, I currently only have one song fully written. I have ideas for other songs, but I'm often plagued with distractions, writers block, and other things that I shouldn't be making excuses for, especially after I've written on how to fight writers block. This just goes to show that no matter how much you know, and how much you've spent writing, it's still never quite simple to create new and completely individual material, and I guess that's why I'm very cautious about writing just anything. Maybe I should be writing for the sake of writing like I advise in another one of my posts.
Obviously, I'm basically trying to stir up creativity and following my own advice by writing till I have an idea. I've come full circle, and talked sense into myself.
Now to write another song.
