very welcome Donna
it seems complicated now but its really a standard process that will become 2nd nature after you have done it once or twice...you are a very smart gal and you will easily master the formalities of this..as I told you in the PM-all original work must be credited Above the Copyright 2009 line.....every toot-twang or beat contributed...percentages must be calculated before submission.......no publisher wants something of indeterminate authorship or questionable ownership.....I know you want to do the right thing by everyone..tell em they gotta join a PRO if they aint in one already....BMI is worldwide and free-so no excuse not to be in one.....no other worldwide international vehicles for assigning credit or paying royalties that I know of except PRO's......attention to detail and agreement beforehand now saves nightmares later.....sometimes songs have 5 writers-no problem.....as long as all their names are Above THE COPYRIGHT 2009 LINE.. if a publisher likes it-and hopefully they will-you will get a phone call-good work Donna-we want it yadda yadda.....we will be sending out contracts for all to sign.....and you best have that issue resolved before that call...its really just common sense.....the same principle as car titles whatever...I cant sell you a car i dont fully own.....well keep in touch-welcome to the wonderful world of demo submissions-lol.......
