Hi, i'm new here and I hope to connect with others, who enjoy (like me) the process of writing a song. I grew up with the love for folk songs like the ones from Paul Simon, Stan Rogers, Tom Paxton, Bob Dylan, Gordon Lightfoot a.s.o. So, you can say I'm a folk guy. I only recently began to write songs on my own and found it astonishingly easy to write, all the more harder to find the melodies. I'm not a good guitar player and certainly not a good singer, but this hasn't stopped me...:-) I will upload from time to time the songs I have already written and I am eager to hear your opinions. Especially about the lyrics and words, although I'm not a native English speaker, I'm always afraid that the lines I use might be used incorrectly. Please tell me if this is the case.
