I have been waiting to get my hands on this updated version on the book after I had fell in love with the original, the information in this book is just amazing so many 'things' to jump start your mind to think and write creative.
Pat Pattison is just a genius in 'finding the right way to say something' in your lyrics. "Writing better lyrics" does exactly what it's title says and I highly recommend it.
