Over at the Guardian there is a competition wherein entrants write Dumbledore's death (note: begun when the press were speculating their arses off about Book 6. Just convenient speculation, folks) in the style of another author/publication. The Irving Welsh one is by far my favourite:

Big Albie wis bombed ootay his box when we goat up tae his office. **WARNING WARNING DRUG THEMES** )

stories are all fiction, a boy called harry

No, it's okay.
But you should someday. Just so you can read the story. :D It is just perfect.

It's on my list for sure. Along with Slaughterhouse 5 and Bukowski. I take my lists seriously :)
