This all-levels workbook helps readers tap into their creativity and turn thoughts into meaningful, memorable lyrics—no musical training required. Inspired by the authentic storytelling of artists like Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, and Noah Kahan, it’s packed with engaging prompts, practical exercises, and expert guidance on structure, lyrical language, and emotional connection.
Whether you’re dreaming of filling stadiums, writing songs in your bedroom, or simply exploring a new form of self-expression, The Songwriter’s Notebook makes the creative process accessible, inspiring, and fun.
Courtney Fortune—recognized by the Recording Academy and Glamour, and recipient of the Brian Wilson Award for Outstanding Musical Achievement—draws on her experience mentoring artists of all kinds to help readers find their unique voice.
I had a chance to review a copy of this book. My adult daughter has gotten into songwriting, mostly for musicals and theater selections, but also just for her own self-expression. She found this notebook to be extremely helpful. It gave her some new prompts and also ideas for refining her work, all in an easy-to-understand way. She also loved how interactive it was - it wasn't just telling readers how to write songs, it provided for ways to explore and experiment as well.
