When it's time to try a new style, perhaps you need to start writing songs, and start an international pop career, even if it's behind the scenes. 

My complete lack of sincerity* (as far as my writing is concerned) would certainly help.
Writing on order unfortunately leads to almost instant writer's block.

As you should know I retexted about 150 songs (see Choral Squids)

In general my way is to use a strict given form traing to fill it. Freestyle rarely works (same btw with drawing and music)

*even my 'serious' poems are pure stylistic excercises and do not come from the heart.
I think the only piece of truly heartfelt art I have produced was a fugue like piece of music in February 2000.

Sibling Zono (anon1mat0)

Sincerity is overrated, ever saw the Dexter episode when a crazy woman describes her link to her victim and how Dexter uses her verbatim to propose?
;) :P :mrgreen:

Ayuh, sounds like you'd be perfect for writing pop songs. One could also quite easily translate and re-interpret pop from different languages into hit songs, I'm sure.
WWDDD?

Had a blood test. To be more precise, had lot of blood removed from my hand (no other veins) to be sent for a variety of tests, having had to fast before-hand. My hand is now empty (ref. Tony Hancock, The Blood Donor).

Roland disappeared. He exists in another reality. Does the postal service reach there?

Should we spread a rumour that he has been imprisoned in Russia with the Greenpeace people?

Cool!

Just wanna say I've rung bells for The Salvation Army twice this month. Yeah, they're basically a Xtian organization, but they are a legit charity for the needy. Mr. Ops is in a service club and got us roped into it. It was quite fun to do both times. The time flew by, and the people donating were so happy.

I went beyond 300 stanzas on my current project the Gerdalied

Now 386 stanzas. I hope to reach 400 before this day (and year) is ended.

Edit: I fell short by 5 stanzas due to feeling very unwell (headache, slight vertigo; I suspect the sinuses)
