Write On Purpose
Â
You can finish a song. Now learn to write one that lands exactly the way you meant it to.
Maybe you just graduated Ready, Set, Write. Maybe you've been writing songs on your own for a while. Either way, this is where you stop writing by feel and start making every choice on purpose.
This is for you if:
- You've finished at least one song (lyrics, melody and chords)
- Your songs come out "fine," and you want them to hit the way the songs you love hit you
- You keep reaching for the same four chords, the same melody shapes, the same way of starting
- You want to understand why great songs work, so you can do it too
What you'll learn:
- Start a song from anywhere: a melody fragment, a few lyric lines, a concept and expand them from idea to complete song
- Choose chords for the feeling you want, including the "spicy" onesÂ
- Write hooks and melodies people remember after one listen
- Make your words, rhythm and melody work together to tell the same story
- Use more song forms and rhyme types, so you never trade a great line for a rhyme
- Find your natural writing strengths and fix the spot where your songs stall
What's included:
- Step-by-step video lessons in understandable, bite-size piecesÂ
- Power Work for every lesson to help you apply the topics to your own musicÂ
- Milestone checks, so you always know where you are
- BONUS: The Progression Bank, real chord progressions sorted by emotion
- BONUS: Your Writer's Block System, so you know exactly what to do when you're stuck
- Ask questions in the comments under any lesson
- Watch on your phone or computer with the Kajabi app
Graduate with finished songs where you can explain every choice you made, and the skills to do it again and again.
