Hey all,

I have been teaching myself guitar for about 7 months now through GT, and recently I am having trouble holding the pick between my fingers when I strum. It is very frustrating because I can only strum a chord for a bar or two and then the pick slips. Is this normal for beginners? I have so much trouble switching chords and strumming when playing the easy version of Simple Man. I mean it's supposed to be easy, right?

Plese help!
