I use everything and nothing depending on where in the creative process a certain idea will take off and/or where the song needs to go. Some require more work, some don't. Some flow from the get go and some never does. If I can find help and inspiration with the help of a website, be it a rhyming one, thesaurus, dictionary, songs, poetry, books, papers, articles or elsewhere I will. Anything goes really. And pompeyjazz, the brainwork (I hope!
) will be there regardless, it's just tools for you to work
with, not tools that work for you.
Besides, it's fun.
