All good advice. I'll try a few alternate approaches.

1. Find a collaborator. If you have good ideas for a melody and feel, and can imagine whether a certain place feels major or minor, someone else can do the music arrangement.

2. Use BIAB to generate a song from your melody.

Of course, if it was easy, everyone would do it. Songwriting is a craft that takes a serious commitment to learn.
