Awesome! So helpful and fun. Thank you!
I highly recommend working with Athena if you would like feedback on how to strengthen a developing song or how to write one. I am a novice song writer in the process of developing a jazz song. Athena was able to dig right into how I could improve the rhyming scheme, provide suggestions of how to rearrange my chorus and verses better fit my genre, and she also provided feedback on how to make my song more personal and heart-gripping, content wise. She provided me with notes and tools/readings that could help me develope my song that I could explore on my own after our session, too. I ended our workshop feeling enthusiatic and clear about how I can revise my song, thanks to Athena's direct and thorough revision suggestions. Enjoy your song writing workshop with Athena! You'll get a lot out of it.
