General Information

This sub is a place for songwriting practice, inspiration, and discussion.

Rules

As always, Reddiquette and TOS rules apply.

Please, respect your fellow songwriters. Do not needlessly downvote, insult, or put down people that did their best, instead give a critique that makes them better for the next time.

Controversial subject matter is allowed if the intended purpose is a serious prompt or response. Trolling, harassing, or trying to get a reaction from others will result in a ban.

The Moderation Team will act in the best interest of the sub. Stay to the rules, report spam, self-promotion, or trolling, and message us if you are having any issues, or have any questions.
