Quick question on getting noticed for song and short story writing, Please help!
I’ve written many Songs and some would say twisted short stories that I want to put out there, get known. However…
1) I have no band or people I know who are musically interested or able.
2) I don’t want to publish my stories on some fiction website where nobody will see it or someone could steal it, I want to use them to my benefit.
I don’t know what to do with my creations and what to do with them; I’ve looked online but no luck. I think my stories and songs are valid of publication but I don’t want to just post them online so somebody can easily take them and claim them to be their own.
I don’t know any magazines that would publish my stories (Their not exactly normal-magazine friendly) and I don’t want to put them in a book as in my situation (Don’t ask) it would be quite difficult.
Please, somebody help! Any valid answers appreciated.

To avoid theft in the public arena, you need to copyright your work.
Get a copy of writer’s digest mag. and see all the publisher’s ads.
