- [Instructor] Another way to broaden your network and really improve your songwriting, especially early on, is to join a group of your songwriting peers. What this will do is it will certainly motivate you to write and improve, because you're going to be accountable to each other when you meet once a week or once every couple of weeks. On top of that, it will provide, hopefully, constructive criticism and support. This is a good way to woodshed your early songs and test them out in a no-stress environment, but more stress certainly than just playing them at home and never showing them to anyone. It's important to have this peer group. This is not a songwriting organization, by the way. This is just a group of like-minded songwriters who are possibly at a variety of different levels. But the key here is that you're going to support each other and test your songs out in their earliest stages by playing them for one another.
