Why think and act like a man when you can think and act like Dolly?! Thanks for this Thea, I just completed a songwriters camp thing here in ATL and it was a very worthwhile experience and very co-ed, though almost all of the producers that were paired with the songwriters were men.

Very well-written and informative! I'm about to go back to school for Multimedia and I'm planning on enhancing my skills by taking some audio engineering-related courses. It would be really cool to work in music but it does seem hard to break through as a woman, but reading this article gave me some inspiration.

Angy, this is fantastic news! One group you may want to join is Soundgirls.org. I don’t know if they have a local chapter by you, but they have a ton of online events and resources. Some serious powerhouses within the group.

I would love to know how organizer goes about hosting one as I find it a struggle to get people to show up to events....but that I guess that's what so many creatives and artists struggle with..getting the word out about our work!
