here's the tune if you wish to sing along
(it sort of fits, you might have to lah lah lah a bit)
or a woman of course! LOL |

And now, the end is near;
And so I face that final edit.
My friend, I'll say it clear,
I'll state my case, for which I must take credit.
Rejects, I've had a few;
But then again, too many here to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.
I planned each chaptered course;
Each careful step along the writing pathway,
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate rejection up and spat it out.
I chose the font, and wrote the prose...
And did it ....my way!
I wrote, I laughed and cried.
I had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as fears subside,
I find it all so amusing.
To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
Oh no, oh no not me,
I wrote it... my way!
For what is a book, what has it got?
If not mainstream, then it has not
To be set aside and be forgot!
Don’t lose the words … you have a choice
Find and use your indie voice.
And write it your way!
Terrific—as usual. Made me smile!
