Barry Trotter and the Dead Horse???


Well…what a quick way to get famous and also a quickest way to write a book. If you are also the one looking for quick fame, think of designing or creating a parody of some already hot selling item.

Here you could learn from Michael Gerber, the guy who has created a character of Barry Trotter …some manuscripts from his so called: Crapbook are as follows:

These books tell the ghastly tale of Barry Trotter, Lon Measley and Ermine Cringer. Amusingly the story starts when Barry is 22, goes on to tell what happened when he was 39 and then, because Mike Gerber couldn't think what do next, zips back, via a supremely unlikely plot device to when he was 9...

And well this is not all the guy is also involved in creating parodies of unnecessary sequels of Tolkein’s LOTR…for further parodies count to: http://www.harrysscrapbook.co.uk/barrytrotter/bc.php?p=3
