Hello Everyone in Happy Land

Hello.. I was pointed in the direction of this Forum by a friend of mine who suggested I finally put lyrics to some of my Music.. Ive written several what I and some of the people I know call decent (some use the word beautiful.. I like to think there just being kind :p) But they are lacking Vocal interaction.. I'm not one who's very good with words (as I'm sure most of you will have dilemma in reading this post.. sorry) Ive never been much of a reader.. or a writer of words.. I have no vocabulary.. and I cant spell for crap (thank you spell checker) So I'm hoping for maybe some insight.. or maybe somebody who needs someone to put music to there Lyrics would probably be more ideal

Welcome to the forums! Now, this is just a stab in the dark (I love mysteries, can't you tell?!) but how about the poetry forum here? Or the writing buddy forum? Maybe you can connect there with someone to put lyrics to your music. Are you sure your music needs lyrics? Of course this is all out of my league, so I'm shutting up now. Welcome!

Oh, boy, have you ever come to the right place! At times we have a veritable swarm of poets and have to gently brush them off our sleeves. (Gently because you can't always tell which poets sting.) I'm sure if you've got music that needs lyrics to be truly complete, you'll find many people who'd be delighted to seek the perfect complement to your work by providing theirs.

Maryn, glad to meet you

Welcome, IB -- hope you find the place to your liking. I'm glad you've joined, and I'm interested in your question. I've always admired the heck out of composers; I'd like to get there eventually (um, it's years off at this rate).

I hope you find help and inspiration here, and I look forward to seeing you around the place!
