How to Write a Song

Dolly Parton says she used to get freaked out when she didn't have any ideas or I wasn't inspired. She's seen herself go in and out of it, going through phases where you're not writing and then you go through phase where you're writing a lot. "It's nice to not freak out when you're not because you know it'll eventually come again" Her first song after moving to New York was really just a few chords on guitar which is really kind of a country song.
