Ive always dismissed musician networks cause I feel like the people there are there for themselves, they are not real listeners.

Occasionally, I will get a friend request from somebody who doesnt even sing in english, way different style than me. And Ill be like "Sure we can be pals" !

I havent really tried to make money with my music, So I cant say for sure. Im pretty sure writing songs for other people through publishing is a pie in the sky thing.

I did write a song for a game company a old sports board game, the owner of the company wasnt crazy about it, but some of his employees heard it. I even got an email from a pretty well known sportswriter telling me I nailed what the game was about. Made me feel good. It was featured on some of their media, I had it up for sale on a site. I even got thousands of listens and made maybe 10 bucks LOL, I never did contact Nimbit to collect my dough though!
