oooh oooh ooohhhh....I think I can answer that one Steve.....

You are networking and creating your songs as you go, so there isn't a "how many songs" you bring its are you writing with someone that has an outlet for your songs and your bringing something to the table. That being said I know that it isn't unheard of to have about 300 or so songs in a catalog before you see something happening...but again each new song you create may be more amazing then the ones in your catalog...
