DescriptionI have considerable experience writing songs, especially lyrics. In addition to writing and recording demos, I've written lyrics and librettos to musicals, two of which were rock musicals that have been produced. Until recently, I kept a lot of writing lyrics and music to myself. It's been a great, lifelong, joyous process. But mostly personal. Now, I would like to break it out and share it with others. Also, want to explore the ideas and possibilities of collaborating--finding those elusive, magical connections-- where the whole is greater than the sum or its parts. I play a very basic rhythm guitar and can sing. I think my strengths lie in lyrics, melody and the ability to collaborate well. I'm very interested in collaborating with songwriters or composers in search of a lyric writer.

Dreams & AmbitionsTo write songs that get published and recorded and make the charts.
