I'm still very much learning the craft and I don't feel accomplished enough to be link to, but I think if there will be a way for me to make a living by composing it will be thru the internet. So I will keep an eye open for this project. It even inspired me to put up a link on my website featuring other living composers. (So if you want to be linked to feel free to PM me).
