[I read this email yesterday, and was so happy I thought I would cry. I am going to complete this songwriting challenge after all, dammit!]
Dear carlalynnehall,
A quick love letter from FAWM HQ:
* You can do it! Whether you have one song to write or thirteen, it’s been done before and you can make it happen again. And by golly, writings songs is fun!
* A title is all you need. Titles are all you need to post at FAWM.ORG for them to count officially. Lyrics and demos are always optional, and you can add them later. So focus on writing songs instead of polishing demos if you must. A lot of commenting happens in March and April.
* Midnight at the International Dateline. You can continue to post songs as long as it’s still February somewhere in the world. That means 7am March 1 in New York, 4am in Los Angeles, noon in London, etc.
And remember to donate to FAWM.ORG if you haven’t had the chance yet!
See you at the finish line,
Burr Settles
(Founding Fawmer)
UPDATE: I uploaded my 14 song titles by FAWM’s International Dateline Deadline:
