Don't give up John. I love your songs and your style of songwriting too. You're a great musician.  We're all basically the same, only a handful of people will ever hear our music. And it's annoying sometimes because most deserve more. It makes me mad when I hear some of the crap that gets played on the radio etc. and I hear some real talented people in sites like this.
As long as you keep enjoying it, keep doing it if you can.
Take care.

Mike S, SE, Berrypatch & Darren-Thanks so much. Thanks again, Steven & Zoltan. The responses and support I'm seeing here are very encouraging.

I'm relatively new on here, and to be honest I haven't listened to much of your back catalogue. What I have heard I've enjoyed, always impecabbly recorded and produced, with interesting chord changes and structure.

I had a long hiatus, I still played but recorded and wrote very little until the last couple of years. Having a young family was a good excuse though. Really its just been something I like to do for my own enjoyment, and I like to listen to what I've created.

I think maybe you just need a break from this - you've said you enjoy experimenting with chords and melodies, so sooner or later you'll do somthing again that makes you want to record and develop whatever you come up with
