And Now.....

Below you youthful poets will find a link. At the site to which this link leads is another link, Murphy's Law of Songwriting. Does this apply to certain practicalities  of writing and PUBLISHING poems? It is INTEGRAL to doing so. Also you'll find the â€œinstructions” entertaining.  In fact it might lead some of you to songwriting. Regardless, it will improve both that prospect and/or the prospect of ever realizing demand for publication of your work across ALL vistas of your writing.  For five of you, the suggestions, if met, here are ALL you need to create those demands.  Primarily we live in a COMMERCIAL world and because that meets certain innate  facets of human nature, it is only snobbery which keeps us from accepting this reality.  Do not ever think there is EVER a point to be a large tree to fall in a tiny forest, to permutate an otherwise less suitable admonition.  But dip into this yourself and tell me you've won no benefit.  I'll give you ten to one odds you can't http://www.ascap.com/nashville/murphy/

Hmmm, thank you JC for the information & link provided. Songwriting, now I wonder who here has the ability to create lyrics, set to music - to push further with their writing abilities. On target with living in a commercial world; & to change commercial for one moment, I am so tired of pharmaceutical commercials that I rarely watch television anymore. I'm going to look at this link, and suggest one back to you - as a writer I think you might find it a place for enjoyment - It's called The Hub Writing - I started one, the site is free - and instead of getting critiques you get, "fans", the ability to interact with other writers and the content of what's written is not restricted to one area. All subjects are welcome. blessings, Deni
