Big cities and their lights are a staple image in songs, books, films, and photography for reason. They evoke a crackling and delectable anticipation for treasures that may be found by venturing forth. They signal an abundance of life, a bursting at the seams of newness, strangeness, and possibility. The experience of driving into a new city at night and watching its bars and people and neon signs materialize alongside you is one just about everyone can relate to—whether loved, or loathed.

This week in Song Club, I want you to explore cities, lights, and your experiences with them in your writing.

Dig in and have fun!
