Write It Now! (A Writer's Parody of Let It Go!)

So, uh...

Sometimes I write parodies for songs for writers. For instance, I've done:
Jingle Bells (Writing Sells)
Sexy and I Know It (Writer and I know it)
We Are Young (We Are Writing)
12 Days of Christmas (12 Days of Writing)

But I haven't done one for quite some time. If there are other songs you'd like me to parody, lemme know in the comments section below and I'll try to get to them asap.

In the meantime, my son (like, uh, everyone's kids) had a big Frozen phase and that song played and played and played and... So here is my parody of Frozen's "Let It Go."


It is called,  

"Write it Now"


The cursor glows white in my word file tonight
Not a sentence to be seen
An office of isolation,
And it looks like I'm not Stephen King.

The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
Couldn't write a word, heaven knows I tried!

Can’t think of plot, can’t think of scenes
Write the stories like you’ve always dreamed
Reveal, don't feel, don't ever slow
Don’t tell, just show!

Write it now, write it now!
Can't hold it back anymore
Write it now, write a book
And then you can publish for Nook!

I don't care
What reviewers say
Let the storm rage on,
It could be a bestseller anyway.

It's funny how some grammar
Makes everything seem wrong
And the characters who wouldn’t shut up before
Won’t say a peep at all!

It's time to see what I can do
To test the limits and break through
No right, no wrong, no rules for me, I'm free!

Write it now, write it now!
I am one with the keyboard and screen.
Write it now, write it now!
You'll never see me cry!

Here I sit
And here I'll stay
Let the plot rage on!

My story scurries from my fingers to the file
My soul is spiraling in run on sentences all around
And one thought crystallizes like an epic task
I'm never going back,
Page one is in the past!

Write it now, write it now!
And I'll write till the break of dawn
Write it now, write it now!
That panicked girl is gone!

Here I sit
Until the light of day
Let the story rage on,
The critics never bothered me anyway! 


heehee...so, yeah. That happened. Happy Writing!

Writer's version of Sexy and I know it...

I haven't written you guys a song in awhile...how about Sexy and I know it?

But we are writers...So we will do "Writer and I know it."

When I walk to my desk, story in my mind: I can write
I plan to be great
Sittin at my desk with a coffee for a break
Yeah
This is how I write
Comfy yoga pants, out of control
It's Author with the big ass scroll
And like Nora Roberts; I’m gonna grow. Just look at that story (x3)
I write books!

When I walk in the con, this is what I see
Everybody stops and they staring at me,
I got passion in my books,
And I ain't afraid to show it (show it, show it, show it)
I'm writing and I know it (x2)
Yeah
When I'm at the mall, no one recognizes me
And when I'm at the beach, I'm reading my kindle in sunscreen (what)
This is how I roll,
C'mon readers, it's time to go.
We're headed to facebook, c’mon don't be nervous
Yoga pants, no shower and I still get service (what)

Girl look at that story (x3)
I write books!
Girl look at that story (x3)
I write books.

When I check in on goodreads, this is what I see
Everybody reviewing and liking me,
I got followers on twitter,
And I ain't afraid to show it (show it, show it, show it)
I'm a writer and I know it (x2)

Check it out, check it out:
Edit, edit, edit, edit, edit, yeah!
Edit, edit, edit, edit, edit, yeah!
Edit, edit, edit, edit, edit, yeah!
Edit, edit, edit, edit, yeah, yeah!

Do the edit man,
I do the edits man,
Yeah
I'm a writer and I know it

Girl look at that story (x3)
I write books!
Girl look at that story(x3)
I’m back in edits (edit, edit, edit, edit, edit, edit, edit)
I'm a writer and I know it.
