The hardest part of songwriting...5/30/2019  For me... the hardest part of songwriting is...
DRUMROLL PLEASE! ...naming. Naming songs is incredibly difficult! Writing? That's easy. Give me an instrument and/or a pen and I'll exhale melodies and strung-together phrases. Writing songs is like feeling emotions and I guess explaining them in multiple dimensions. And I can emotion. I can feel. I can dissect my heart and throw it all over a page. I can write forever - I'm a walking four page explanation. But naming? That's hard. Taking all that emotion, melody, lyric, and magic and condensing it into a word or short phrase is like trying to pack a months worth of clothes into a backpack. So when I ask my fans to help name a song at a show or in a video/blog post...I'm not joking. Thanks to all the fans who've helped me name songs. And thanks to the fans who've enjoyed my songs even if the name isn't quite right. -Brenna Lynn

I have been trying to write songs, but it seems like writing songs is not an easy thing for me. I used to become part of a band and I am the main vocalist so I once felt like I really needed to write songs in order to help the band become more personalized when it comes to the songs that we perform. However, it seems like writing songs requires more than what I have expected. I wasn't fully passionate with what I was doing for the band before and I just realized lately that perhaps it is one of the reasons why I can't become successful in song writing. Now that I am no longer part of a band, it makes me feel regretful that I was not able to give my best before and I wish I can still change things. 3/30/2020 04:33:31 am
I have realized after reading this that being able to write songs is actually a great talent. I have been encouraged by my teammates before to write songs as well because I am kind of good with singing. Well, I used to try writing some love songs, however, as time goes by, I have realized that perhaps writing songs is not really for me. But of course, I am not closing any opportunity that I will be given in the future when it comes to writing songs again. I think I just need to prepared myself first before I start again.
