What if I’m not a member of any society?
A. It is not necessary to become a writer member of a society for our agreements at creation, however you will eventually need to do so. The reason is when we make a placement the complete title information needs to be provided to the society for payment to you for your writers share. To become a writer member just go to ASCAP, BMI or SESAC’s (the society you want to affiliate with) website and search for how to become a writer member. In the meantime, just send back the information you have so we can create the agreement and we’ll leave the lines blank for the society information until you become a member with the society of your own choosing. We just ask that you notify us of your society affiliation when you become a member.
