    - write the song
    - The song is copyrighted as soon as it is in tangible form
    - Agree on song-splits (how you will divide the music publishing income)
    - Register with IMRO and MCPS (because we're just talking about (C) publishing rights here)
    - Release the work and label it with a correct legal line - e.g.(C) 2022 Lara Norris
    - Releasing the song is in fact 'publishing' the song as it causes the song to generate income]]>     2022-03-28 06:27:27 UTC https://padlet.com/laranorris1/11ow7fspv6t4tf9x/wish/2116492340     Questions for you laranorris1 https://padlet.com/laranorris1/11ow7fspv6t4tf9x/wish/2116513479 So now...
    How did you release it?
    How are you generating income?
    Remember to outline the 4 main types of publishing income.
    Do you have a Music Publisher? What do they do? What percentage do they take?
    Or are you self-publishing? How do you do that?
    Anything else you know about publishing or copyright law that you think is relevant to your situation?
