Three Tips For Writing A Great Melody

Melodies are hard. Chords come with all sorts of easy rules about how you're supposed to string them together, but when it comes to writing a nice line to go on top of it, oftentimes it seems like you're just supposed to pick random notes and hope they sound good. And honestly, once you get into the habit you are kinda doing that, but if you feel like your melodies are falling a bit short, there's a few things you should try paying attention to, like melodic shape, note functions, and phrasing!
