Title: Question About Songwriting
Post by: youngerformofaxl on December 01, 2004, 04:03:22 PM
I've been writing songs in my journal since April 30th, 1999, when I was in the 8th grade.

I wanna publish books of poetry but I was also wondering about my other options, like should I:

A) Sell my songs to get on the radio and get royalities that way.
B) Just keep writing and release them as books of poetry.
or C) Just keep writing and not release anything.

I'm not sure how it is outside of the U.S. but here in the U.S. you can sell your songs to singers/producers and they if they get released say on an album, there is a certain number of royalties you can get. But, it depends on how well the album sells.

Could I get some advice from some people beside Bi-Polar?

(No offense to you or anything.)
