Synopsis

If you're an aspiring Christian songwriter struggling with writing great lyrics, strong melodies, finishing your songs, or wondering how you'll be heard in a crowded songwriting marketplace, industry veteran, John Chisum, shares vital information and inspiration in this easy-to-read, yet power-packed book gleaned from his 30+ years as an influential Christian music writer and publisher. Chisum, known for his humor and passion for Jesus, has managed dozens of professional songwriters and published thousands of songs in his roles as Director of Song Development and Copyright for Integrity Music and as Vice-President of Publishing for Star Song Media. This book reveals not just the critical skills of successful songwriters, but the critical mind set of the kind of writers who come up with hit after hit. For Chisum, mind set is as important as skill set, and his insights here will go a long way towards equipping new generations of Christian songwriters.
