    Songwriting

    One thing I'd practice doing weekly is writing 'hooks' or 'choruses' - I find it really helps me with my songwriting in general, as my ear has developed more in recognizing what a good melody is, and through constantly churning out hooks, I'm always going for a catchier or more memorable melody...
