I'm a guitarist, playing with 3-4 bands 4-5 days a week. I also study Sound Engineering and doing recording, arranging and mixing. My literature is not bad, and I have a good music education. Including mods and even maqams. But I can't produce anything. I'm trying to write a melody, but I just can't. It feels so simple, so predictable. Then I delete it. Sometimes I like and save it. After few days, I don't like it. Same for writing lyrics. My brain absolutely stops working. I don't know what to do. Please help me!

          Buffy… produce a good song is hard, very hard, very very hard. You can't succeed the first time, even the 10th.



          In any case, you can't succeed if you stop.



          Stop thinking. Stop juging you (too fast).



          Make a deal: during one year, write a song each day. A song a day. With an 8 or 16 bars for the verse and 8 or 16 bars for the refrain. If you write lyrics, try to produce one verse and the refrain.



          A song a day. Or a song a couple of days at the beginning. Not a song a week (it's not enough). During one year.



          Don't remember: stop thinking, stop juging you. Just produce the (bad) song, throw it in the trash (maybe, during the year, you keep 3 or 4 verses and 3 or 4 refrains).



          Then we talk.
