When you reach puberty, you start publishing! :D

You're a bit ambiguous here; however, you can publish a book, novel, short story or publish sheet music or run a program on a PC that will print out "publish" your notes as you play them.

I'm reaching at straws here because I don't really know what you mean.

Rephrase your question in a succinct manner and we'll all try and answer you.

Green Hornet :D :cool:
 
I believe publishing is how songwriters get paid for their work. They register with ASCAP or BMI... the inner-workings of the process is a little fuzzy...
 
I THINK ASCAP and BMI pay both the "songwriter" and the "publisher," so you'd have to list yourself as both if you're self-published and you want to get all the money that's coming to you. Of course, if you actually expect to get paid by these groups, you should spend a little more time searching and you'll find that the little guys usually...um...don't.
