On writing music

Here's one approach I use.

Set a timer, say for 20mins and write.

Every day.

Before practising anything else.

Sometimes I stumble across a great idea.
Most times I don't.
But I stick with it.

As the picture shows, I spent 7 days just trying to get started - Version (7) finally revealed itself as something worth developing. Which I'll continue doing.

The moral of the story - be persistent, be consistent, and don't stop till you've finished the piece of music.

How do you write your music?!
