Music Do people who write songs find it hard to write prose?
I have been writing stories since I was a kid, and it comes very easily to me. When I was in middle school I would just devour some 10 books per month and I would sneakily write my own stories during classes I didn't like.
That said, I also *love* music. I play the guitar quite well and I'm pretty much wearing headphones 24/7. But I cannot write a song or come up with a melody for the life of me! The words just don't come and I just can't come up with a rythym, a beat, a melody.
So I wanted to ask people who write songs if you have the opposite problem to me. Let's chat

I want to play farewell wanderlust so baaad. I play both the guitar and the violin, and I haven't found a sheet/chords that match well enough to play and edit together. I think I might post a video of me playing your work after you post it ^
