Yep, you're quite right...it's just tougher writing whilst doing that day job...even if the day jobs musical. I guess I'm an idealist and want to write day and night, and thought I'd be able to finally do that when I got my publishing deal.
But - dream on! You're right, the only one who's going to work the hardest for our songs is ourselves. OK, talking of which - will go start...many thanks again (everyone) :-D
Don't dream on, work on (glib advice of the day).

Either way, never stop plugging yourself, nobody is actually doing it 24 hours a day for you, even if they say they are. |

Being wildly optimistic by nature, I'd think if the tracks have any value. if they insist on keeping them, try and convince them they should be re-demoed and sent to XX, YY or ZZ as covers. |

You have answered a lot more of your own questions there I`m afraid.
If you are unrecouped, you may well owe them money and the radio plugging is not the direct job of the publisher, anymore than a seperate plugger can guarantee airplay sadly.
It is kind of good news that they are unwilling to let the tracks go, you could think of yourself as "being put on ice".
But the most important bit, irrelevent of the money, is allways remember what made you write and play in the first place, and I doubt it was the call of the money.
We play and write music because we love it, all else is a bonus. |
