As a musician, Third Day lead guitarist and author Mark Lee has a unique perspective on the writing process. For Lee, writing a song and writing a book demand a similar creative headspace. The key difference between the two is the amount of time required to complete each project. While a songwriting project can take only a few hours, Lee dedicated years to his upcoming memoir Hurt Road. In addition to songwriting, Lee has honed his craft as an active blogger for many years, which provided a big entry point into writing his memoir. By establishing a set schedule for writing and fully immersing himself each day Lee has kept the creativity flowing, no matter the type of project.
