Speaking of ASCAP.

After the approval of my composer application for ASCAP, which I'll work on later today, it makes financial sense for me to also fill out a publisher application, since (a) it doesn't cost anything and (b) as the ASCAP website tells me, "If the work is unpublished, any royalties attributable to performances will not be distributed," and besides (c) it allows me to come up with a calm, professional title for my publishing company, such as "This Song Is Awful Publishing" or "Uuuugggghhhh Music" or "Michael Jackson Publishing." So. You have a couple weeks to help me come up with a name, not to exceed 35 characters including spaces.

I like "Thelma Dawn Esprit Publishing."
