Day to Day
A great day at work is writing for a good four to five hours - this could be lyrics or music, by myself or as a cowriter. Songwriting is a huge priority for me. Of course what I do calls for a lot of practice time on guitar and voice. I spend a lot of time learning other people's songs and rearranging them and that gives me more ideas for my own songs. After that, there's always administrative stuff to do like sending out booking requests, promoting putting shows together.
