My first book, 100 Miles To A Record Deal, hadn't been in stores a week or two when a friend asked me when I would write another. I laughed at him thinking he must be crazy and that obviously he had never experienced the mental aftermath of calling your book complete and then actually getting it in print and in the stores. No way would I write another. So my friend got a good chuckle when I was telling him about my upcoming book, Opening The Closed Door, and said ... I told you so. Yeah, he got me.
My new book will have similarities to my first and contain chapters written based on my personal experiences. The difference will be that this book will contain segments taken from one on one studio interviews I am conducting and archiving here in Nashville. All successful musicians, artists, songwriters, agents, managers, engineers, producers, etc., telling us in their own words, how they
reached that success and giving us input to use to do the same.
In my column here, Nothin' But The Truth, I will be sharing those interviews and my writings with you on a regular basis. I hope you enjoy and find them helpful as you pursue your songwriting careers!
