QuoteI think a lot of the things that I think I do to avoid writer's block is I write through songs that I don't like. I get an idea for a song, I just go ahead and do it, even though I don't think I'm going to like it.

And I feel like that frees me up to go to the next song.

I normally give up on things that I don't think I'm going to like, and free myself up and go to the next thing.

What if I finished them instead though? It's okay to finish things I don't think I'll like, right?
