Warriorheartdrummer, BMI and ASCAP are performing rights agencies, not publishers!. They collect your performance royalties for you!.

The basic way to get published is to find a publisher who publishes things similar to what you do!. Send ONE piece with recording and CV/resume!. Ask yourself, "How will my piece make this publisher money!?" Wait for the rejection letter!. Publishing is in a bad way these days due to the folks on Yahoo Answers who want everything downloadable for free!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
