I feel you on the "incosistent" comment...

I'm a person who is very open to inspiration and emotions...So, I can also be driving down the street or just standing around and an idea will just come to me. Sometimes they are great ideas, sometimes they aren't. I try to repeat it over and over in my head so I won't forget before I get home and can write it down. Sometimes, I literally grab the first thing I can and write down an idea before it disappears. It's weird in a way. My mind feels like an open window. Every idea either for a song or concept that comes to me doesn't necessarily come from me thinking about it. It's almost as if something or someone else is just dropping ideas into my head and I can either go with it or reject it. When I write lyrics, I can force myself to write 16 bars easily. However, my best verses came from being inspired either by the beat or my surroundings. In other words, my best verses were those I didn't stress myself out about. I feel I do my best work either very early or very late in the day. I love the 5-6-7 AM hours for creative thought. I'm also very focused at 11-12midnight into -1 AM.
