What are Parody's ?/
I looked it up in the Dictionary Dutch-English and I got "Parodie"...
Looked it up in a Dutch Dictionary and I got an explanation but I don't get it when people talk about Writing a Parody ??
Can someone explain to me ?? Thank you :)
I should not keep on, I'll just creep on creepin'on.

No, this is the wrong place. *moved to writing tips* Thanks.

A parody is a spoof, making fun of the original version of something.

What Firestarter said. For instance: Look up any of Weird Al Yankovich's songs. All of those are parodies.

My sister wrote this parody: forum/viewtopic.php?t=5307&highlight=

It's sung to the tune of Michelle's Branch's "Everywhere" but the lyrics are all... scewed to make it funny. :)

It is only a novel... or, in short, only some work in which the greatest powers of the mind are displayed, in which the most thorough knowledge of human nature, the happiest delineation of its varieties, the liveliest effusions of wit and humour, are conveyed to the world in the best-chosen language
