ATRL Moderator Tsareena Posted September 27, 2017 ATRL Moderator Posted September 27, 2017 okay songwriters help me out here. When you're writing, do you come up with a rhyme scheme as you're doing the first draft or do you wait till you have the first draft done then edit it to rhyme? When I try to do the former, my writing ends up being random and I lose the concept in a few lines just because of the rhyming but for the latter, some of the emotion of the verses gets lost as you edit

Unless I'm specifically aiming for a strict rhyme scheme, I go with whatever is more convenient for me to my point across.

Just now, Corsola said: I 100% think it's best to try to do it while writing. It has to flow out of you naturally. Sometimes you'll have to edit rhymes because they'll sound elementary or not fit with the meter or something else but that's still different than just writing something and trying to edit rhymes in. When you do that, it'll sound forced and unnatural most of the time because, well, it is. Thanks sisters. That makes sense then. I guess instead of writing a first draft completely, I'll try to just have the concept and idea for each verse down before really writing anything. might be too late for this round though
touya kinomoto Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 I am effed up. I am not liking how my song was going so I discarded another draft for the 5th time now.

smholiv Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 i haven't been able to start, this has been a busy week for me. hopefully i can get something tonight but i have yet to read the story.
ultraviolence.xx Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 this kind of... isn't the short story i would have picked for a writing prompt like this no shade but it's so scientific/pragmatic/mathematical it doesn't seem like it has much thematic variety

Citrus is still a demon for coming up with this though Edited September 28, 2017 by Tsareena
