Kindlebook Writer (sing it!)
it's been in the back of my mind to write some parody lyrics applicable to our modern e-book age. So, without further ado or don't, here is said parody. Enjoy!
So. A couple of months ago, I blogged a post entitled Paaaaperbaaack Wriiiiiterrrrr (sing it!). There might have been more or fewer “a”s, “i”s, and “r”s there; I haven’t counted them. But, in case you couldn’t tell, I was referencing the old favorite, “Paperback Writer,” by The Beatles.
Every since then, it’s been in the back of my mind to write some parody lyrics applicable to our modern e-book age. So, without further ado or don’t, here is said parody. Enjoy!
“Kindlebook Writer”
(Tune: “Paperback Writer” by The Beatles)

Writer, writer…
Dearest Twitter peeps,
Do you Kindle? Nook?
In a month, I wrote
A NaNoWriMo book!
It is fantasy,
And it’s really good,
And I need the cash,
So I want to be a
Kindlebook writer.
Kindlebook writer!
It’s an epic story
Of a dragon man,
And his elven wife
doesn’t understand.
His son is working
For the Witches’ Guild.
It’s a funky job,
But he wants to be a
Kindlebook writer.
Kindlebook writer!
It’s three thousand pages,
Electronic-wise.
You can swipe the story
‘Til your Kindle dies.
The sequel only
Took me half a week.
My dear spell-check helped me!
And I’m gonna be a
Kindlebook writer.
Kindlebook writer!
At Amazon
It is now on sale.
You can buy it now!
Come and buy my tale!
Review it now!
Give it five gold stars!
I could use the boost,
And I’m gonna be a
Kindlebook writer.
Kindlebook writer!
Kindlebook writer!

Thank you, thank you. ; )
P.S. Just to clarify: Rethana’s Surrender is, in fact, *not* about a dragon man with a cantankerous elven wife and a witchly-employed son. That would make an awesome story, though, so if any of you want to write it, please do!
That’s my favorite Beatles song! Good job on the parody.
Thanks, Anna! : )
