What They Are Saying About Stan's Songwriting Books:

I hadn't flipped through more than a few pages, just reading random bits and pieces, before I had more ideas for new songs than I could shake a stick at. –Ed T. (New Mexico)

Wow, what a great idea for a book. You don't just read it once and put it away, you go back to it again and again whenever you need some new ideas or a jump-start. – Calvin B. (Colorado)

“This book is packed with innovative jet fuel that will set your mind soaring into the creative stratosphere. – Bob L. (Florida)

In reviewing songwriting books, it is important to ask the question: "Will this one help someone become a better songwriter?" In this case, it should make anyone a more prolific songwriter, which will provide the opportunity for improvement. It should help tickle a sleeping muse awake, and that can't hurt. -- The Muse's Muse

I just wrote my first week's song, and I'm having a hard time keeping myself from reading ahead to next week. In fact, if I didn't have other things to do, I could just cuddle up with this book for the winter and write one song after another. -- Susan Lick (South Beach)

"The Songwriter's Journal" is an invaluable tool and very strongly recommended for the novice songwriter, and has a great deal of utility and value for even the more experienced composer. -- Midwest Book Review

There are already dozens of other songwriting books covering those subjects. What "Inspiration For Songwriters" provides is something few other songwriting books offer. And in our humble opinion, it does it much better than the few similar titles we could find. It provides thousands of inspirational ideas that could very well be the seeds to your next song! All in all, "Inspiration for Songwriters" includes over 2000 titles, tips, tricks and other ideas that will inspire you to create song after song.
