Interesting question Eddie. I have had loads of collaborations and all have them have worked out well with the exception of two that were with people not from this site.

One was where I was inspired by someone's poem and made a song out of it ( changing the words but keeping the intent) and that went wrong because I had not cleared with her that I would be changing the words up front.

One thing I have learned on the cowriting front is that every writer must look after his or her own interests. Ie. he must have his or her own publisher and register the cowritten song (as well as you registering your 50% with your own publisher). This is the only way for them to get royalties.
