No significant pre-conception before jumping into this one today. I did however decide on B minor as a key or starting point.
My transposition skills aren't that great so when I do something in a rarely used key it changes the approach and outcome for me a lot. So, I would like to get better at understanding many melodies and chord progressions in any and all keys as a continuation of evolving greater skill at the keyboard. But, until then I will exploit the quirkiness of my make-up-a-song-in-an-odd-key behavior.
This mainly consists of gravitational pull to a more familiar key (sometimes as soon as possible). The side-effects and/or secondary consequences of that are unconventional tonal modulations. That's something I might naturally avoid while taking it easy in a comfortable key.
