If I can get as good as composing stuff on piano as I can on guitar, there will be no problem

Do you use any particular pattern for composing music?

recently i've gotten back into playing piano. I've been toying around with old pieces i used to play when i took lessons, but what i've been really enjoying is just trying to figure out the music to some of my favorite songs just by ear. it's a fun challenge to listen to a track, pick out the piano part and then figure out exactly whats going on.
