PITCH WARRIORS (to the tune of Queen's "We Are the Champions")

Dedicated to all Pitch Warriors and hopefuls out there fighting the good fight (or writing the good write), by Susan Gray Foster



I’ve paid my dues
I’ve done my time
I’ve worked for years
Never making a dime
And bad mistakes
I’ve made a few
I’ve told instead of shown and I’ve used lots of filter words too
(And I need to just write on and on and on and on)

We are Pitch Warriors, my friend
And we’ll keep on writing till the end
We are Pitch Warriors
We are Pitch Warriors
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the writers of the words!

I’ve been rejected
I’ve rewritten it all
But I’ve had CPs and my awesome mentor
I thank you all
Still it’s been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before the whole publishing world
And we ain’t gonna lose
(And I need to just write on and on and on and on)

We are Pitch Warriors, my friend
And we’ll keep on writing till the end
We are Pitch Warriors
We are Pitch Warriors
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the writers of the words!
