Annoyed that it takes all day to write a song when it only takes two hours to write an entire book; with this mod it now only takes about two sim hours to write a song on any instrument or the DJ booth.
It will now take about 4 hours or less depending on your sims skill to write a song. Now includes writing lyrics.
Update Nov 26
Missed changing some values in the BASE GAME mod, please redownload and replace the old mod.

The game seems to use some sort of skill curve to determine write times.
Changed the goal_completion_time y values from 750 and 330 to 150 and 66.
When testing half those values produced one sim hour write times, changing both the x and y's to x=1 y=2, x=3, y=4 made songwriting finish in a few sim minutes.
