Worst thing about being poor to day
Is if you want your book edited
Then you have to pay
If you want it reviewed
Then the story is the same
I am sorry my friend but you have to pay
Need any help sure
But can you pay?
It’s not easy being a poor writer making your way
Maybe that’s why the shelves in bookshops are paved
With celebrity ramblings
Because the can pay
Sorry if this sounds bitter in many ways
But I can see why it is so hard to break through as an author today
Publishers only want certainties
And that’s what you get I guess with books by celebrities
To few breakthrough authors like JK Rowlings
Who some one took a chance on now she’s every publishers darling
Good to see it can be achieved
But I wonder if she paid to get things moving.
