Does any one know a good site for unsigned songwriters to self-publish their own music scores? Specifically, Contemporary Christian music.

If you're talking about printed music scores, depending on which notation program you're using, both Sibelius and Finale have places you can publish your scores, I believe. I'm not sure about the others.

Yes to what Mazz said. I'd also google lots of different places that sell sheet music, they're might be some interesting opportunities with some of the smaller guys without you giving up the publishing. If you've got enough (more than one) than you can also look into building your own website where you can sell them directly, and then market that site to death in whatever creative ways you can come across.

And if you're interested in posting samples of your scores, many people do so on
www.scribd.com
and then link to the site where people can buy it.
Creative commons is another site if you have music/ content to let people use for free (with proper credits given to the composer).
Good luck!

Awesome. Thank you. I do have 3 scores up now on Sibelius and will get the rest up as I can manage it. I will try the other ideas too.
