I think regardless of talent, there is only so much opportunity to go around. I know plenty of unbelievable musicians and songwriters who cant give away their music.

And I have heard marginally talented people get places.

You have to be good, but you gotta be in the right place at the right time.

Taxi can work, all depends on what you can offer at the right time for the right person invilved.

I write from habit and I enjoy improving and helping others get out of the gate. I'd like to publish songs left and right but I understand there is only a few needles to find in the haystack.
