"Which one of the internets do we hack?" : Writing Fake Works of Art

What if bombastic director Michael Bay wrote the next Batman movie?

Spill.com has a fake script that imagines how Bay would screw up the upcoming installment (The Dark Knight) of the comic book franchise, including this choice quote: "GENERAL: Okay, I like it. But which one of the internets do we hack? [BATMAN]: All of them." 

Read it for two reasons. Number one, it's funny. Number two, a little bit of parody can go a long way in your novel. A couple weeks ago, Ed Park told us how he created fake self-help books that gave his satirical novel a new texture. 

Check out his interview, and start mapping out your fake works of art today. 

"I’ve always loved the vertiginous method of including fictional books within a work of fiction, whether the author provides tantalizing passages or just titles."
