Contributor(s):Author: Simon Hawkins Whether you're just starting out as a songwriter, you're an experienced songwriter or just looking for a new perspective on the beautiful craft of songwriting, Song Maps - A New System to Write Your Best Lyrics offers fresh insights to help you write your very best lyrics.

Does any of the following sound familiar? - You worry that the lyrics you write just don't deliver their full potential but can't figure out why, even though technically they tick all the right boxes.

- You have great ideas but your finished lyrics somehow fall short of the emotional impact you wanted and, as a result, your songs get passed over.

- You have a busy schedule with limited time to write and have wasted too many hours chasing un-writable lyric ideas.

- You wonder how some professional songwriters always seem to get a particular dynamic in their lyrics, consistently writing songs better than 90% of what you hear on the radio.

- You are perhaps nervous about going into a pro co-writing session because you fear your ideas aren't worth bringing into the writing room.
