Songwriting Help

Mentoring Weekend
Songwriters frequently ask Phil to review their songs and give them feedback. Although he tries to listen to everything he receives and provide assistance, it has become clear to him that this process does not mentor songwriters to the extent that he would like to provide. Effective immediately, Phil is making himself available to songwriters for a weekend of coaching and co-writing in their hometown. This will allow him to teach and hopefully inspire on an intimate one-on-one basis. The best news is that these weekends can be scheduled at a minimal cost to the songwriter. 

If you are songwriter and would like some personal help, please email Phil or call him at 423-240-7736. He would love to share with you how this would be possible.

Songwriting DVD Series
Phil is evaluating the need for a DVD series providing training to songwriters. The areas he would intend to cover are: how to build a song, how to manage your gift, how to market your songs, how to protect your gift. If you could benefit from this, please email Phil. He would love your thoughts.

Dear Friends,
 
This is a letter of commendation and recommendation. I had an opportunity to have Phil Cross come and sing in our church this year in April and I wanted to share with you the great blessing Phil was to our congregation. But more than this I wanted to let you know that Phil set up a writing session for Saturday of that same weekend. It was a great time of worship, fellowship and songwriting. Phil was such a personal encouragement to me and gave me some great coaching as a songwriter. I would say that I am not only glad we had him in to minister to our fellowship, but also glad to draw on his years of experience as a prolific writer. If you are a songwriter and can work out a weekend with Phil through one of his writers mentoring sessions ... please do not hesitate to do so. You will be encouraged and blessed and sharpened in your gifting as a songwriter. I look forward to doing this once or twice a year ... so that I can glean some new insight into how to better develop into the best writer I can be. Phil ... God bless you! Only eternity will reveal your impact on those you have touched ... I know that this is the case with me. Oh by the way ... Phil and I wrote 4 songs on that weekend ... and started a 5th one.
 
Sincerely,
In Christ ... and so glad I am !!!
