I'm mainly into Christian songs which I send to CCLI with just me singing with the guitar. If churches like my songs, they will use them with the music choir performing them, all they need is the lyrics and rough tune so they know how it should be sung. I'm pleased at how many songs get used, I get a royalty each time the songs get picked up in the sampling, much the same as radio, If it gets picked up in one sample, it might be used in 100 other churches that are not being sampled that week, you get nothing from them, like I said, just like radio. Not getting rich by any means, averaging about a thousand dollars a month.

Everett, a thousand dollars a month for your music?

That is an incredible feat, that most people will never come close to.

And the fact that it comes from church music...

I wouldn't change a thing, if I were you.

Do you y know how many bets I have to win to make a thousand a month?
