Every unforgettable song has one thing in common: an emotional hook that lingers long after the music fades. In The Emotional Hooks Handbook for Music Creators, Neil J. Milliner shows musicians, songwriters, and producers how to design those moments of connection with intention and artistry.

Drawing on psychology, neuroscience, and years of creative practice, this handbook offers:

Songwriting techniques that transform ideas into hooks with lasting impact

Emotional intelligence frameworks to help creators connect deeply with listeners

Step-by-step exercises for writing songs that feel authentic and unforgettable

Audience-first strategies for building resonance across genres and cultures

Whether you're writing your first song or refining your catalog, this book is your guide to creating music that doesn't just sound good-it feels essential.

Perfect for:

independent musicians, producers, and songwriters who want to move beyond formulas and craft songs that truly connect.
