DO IT! I had never written or recorded a single song before I tried this challenge. If I can do it, anyone can. As someone who often over thinks and over analyzes everything, crafting an rpm was a perfect opportunity to be relieved from my own personal constraint of perfection. It can’t be perfect in a month and it shouldn’t be. That is part of what makes the process so rewarding. - nat martin
