If I had been allowed to use zero stars, then I would have. Don't waste your money

Too Technical
Definitely not for the beginner. Not enough tips & tricks. "The Everything Songwriting Book" blows this one away. Too much on "courting the muse".

Interesting and Informative
"Songwriting and the Creative Process" has plenty of info on the nuts and bolts of writing commercially acceptable music. Song structure, rhyme and meter, and a good section on hearing musical intervals are included. There are headings under "Courting the Muse" I find interesting and informative, and problems such as "writer's block" are addressed. One thing that I liked was the overall layout of the book which is neatly broken into easily digestable bits. I may be a little overenthusiastic, but I'll give it five stars.
