Hi!

Sorry if this is kind of a dumb question, but how do you go about choosing the right strumming pattern for a song your writing? Like in my case I have lyrics, melody etc, I know a handful of strum patterns but what sort elements should I be looking for when choosing one or even writing one to compliment the rhythm of the melody if that makes sense. Is there any connection in the melody and the strumming pattern I should be looking for,

Again, sorry for this question, I'm just curious if theres actually a sort of technicality when choosing the strum or is it all in the feel.

Thanks
