Hello Mr. E.,

on a 'competing' web site called Songwriter101* there is a collab-forum that you might give a try. I'm posting three links here, that may be worth your attention:

Wallace was not interested in my stuff, he's interested in Christian topics

I've already co-written two songs with Adrian that wait to be produced but there's more to come

(this is in the 'songwriter's lounge' forum, actually) Donny wants to write a 50ies style Rock'n Roll song. Gary and I already made suggestions. No harm in a little competition, is there?

As for Copyright issues. GB is in the EU (more or less), so there is no need to worry. Although the copyright registration crap actually has its origin in the UK their legislation slowly is approaching modern standards, If you publish lyrics make sure they've got your name on them. "Mr. E." can only be of use if it's your registered pseudonym.

Check out my site to see how I deal with things:

(about 150 of my lyrics either have been written to match someone else's lyrics or have been set to music over the years - this often goes hand in hand)

Have fun,
Bernd

* there are more sites, yet I only use these two American sites at the moment.
