Cheezo,

That is actually THE way you should look at it. What are any of us doing any of this for? To share what we do with as many people as we can. Having a song performed is better than not having a song performed. Having a great sounding representation on a song is much better than having it limited in it's appeal. Having someone else cover a song is much better than just keeping it to yourself.

Making money at it,getting fame, is all a great thing. But often not all it's cracked up to be and there are, as you say, many definitions of "success." I would say that you have found a nice little part of it. You can say something that a lot of people who are writers can't. That you are in the marketplace and are being represented. I would say that counts for quite a bit. Congratulations.
