Attention Songwriters!
Craving NEW songs, accountability, and community? Ready to unlock the secrets behind Sara Bareilles' iconic success?
Join our elite group of songwriters and discover the magic of prolific songwriting. Our last group was a game-changer! Imagine trying out your new songs at a concert, just like I did recently in Bowie, MD.
Meredith Shaw raves: "Sara's writing is full of imagery and vulnerability. This challenge has already loaded my toolbox with new tools. The more I write, the more I write... thank you!"
After writing hundreds of songs, I hit a dry spell. I wondered why my productivity varied so much. It wasn't about emotions, time, or skill. I found TWO HOT SPOTS that supercharged my songwriting, producing 30 songs in no time!

Hot Spot 1: Monthly Songwriter Study
Each month I devoured an artist's material, picked it apart and learned about the artist, learned a few of his or her tunes, included the SiaD community in the artist-choosing process, and then modeled a new song after them. Now I have songs in the style of Sara B, Taylor Swift, John Prine, Alanis Morrissette, Carole King, the Beatles, Bob Dylan, etc. (Amazingly, they all still sound like me) I didn't finish the year-long commitment cause though it was helpful, there were no stakes or accountability and life got life-y.

Hot Spot 2: RealWomenRealSongs
Me and 20 other women wrote and filmed a song a week to her prompts. I met amazing women like Sara Hickman and Kate Klim, & we all wrote songs we perform out to this day. I made it half the way through the year then dropped off on account of Tour de Dress, plus most of the rest of the group had lost steam too.
