The above is pretty much my personal take.
It's a solo process and I'm fine with that.

For me....it's just a self motivating and gratifying form of creative release.
I like to write, I like to play guitar, I like to grab my clip board with an idea to flesh out, I like to turn on the power strip that turns on all the colorful component lights. smile
I write alone and have no desire to collaborate in the lyrical sense.
My wife likes my material but she doesn't inquire about what I'm working on or listen to my stuff as a habit.

I don't expect any encouragement from anyone in the outside world.
Why would I....no one owes me any encouragement or compliments about my song writing efforts.
I don't actively promote my songs other than my isolated interactions here.
I don't have lofty goals or think what I've written are masterpieces.
But, as stated above....I'm also very grateful and appreciative should someone actually listen and comment.

I only hope I can avoid pegging the 'you totally suck' meter.
That's yet to be determined.

OP....'tis a lonely path of interest we pursue. smile

Carry on...
