Okay Writers, It’s Time For Some Real Talk About Your Writing
A limerick dedicated to my fellow authors

To writers perpetually writing about writing; There are some who give you a real slighting, But me, I’m cool, Just don’t be a fool And write something really worth sighting.
To authors who write about money; Us others may treat you quite funny We’re jealous, you see Of your Lamborghini And your home in a place hot and sunny.
To authors writing “there” instead of “their” And “ware” instead of “wear” or “where”; Please, don’t ask your family, Go and use Grammarly, And I will stop being a nit-picking ‘mare.
To authors who write about my spelling ’Cause I’m British, not American-dwelling My spelling’s the best So “up yours” to the rest Oops! What comeback I get, there’s no telling 😮
Brits vs. Americans vs. The Rest — It’s Mine, No It’s Mine — Whose is it?

To authors who drink their own cum; I may not comment like some ’Cause I’m green as a parrot Now I can’t eat my carrot But wait, I have more to drum…
To authors who drink their own cum; Wouldn’t you prefer a nice glass of rum? ’Cause cum ain’t so nice Alone, with no spice 😜 And makes one quite queasy in the tum.

To authors who like to create prompts; Please, don’t take this as an affront But please make it fun, Just like this one, And I’ll leap in with my very best font.
This limerick was in response to a prompt from my current favourite funny doctor, Michael Burg, MD (AKA Medium Michael Burg). Why not have a go yourself?
Thanks for reading!
