I thought for sure the powers that be would've pimped this here by now, but there's a lovely collection of stories online until December called Oprah Read This > Oprah, Read This, a collection of fictional tales that leverage the name recognition of in/famous authors.

My story is called "Untitled Stephenie Meyer Novel," a reaction to Twilight mania, exposing the dangers in taking evil, lustful, violent creatures and writing them as chaste tween heartthrobs. Other authors include:

Nik Korpon
Caleb J Ross
Christopher Dwyer
Richard Thomas
Chris Deal
Paul Eckert
Kevin Sampsell
Mel Bosworth
Nathan Tyree

Brilliant.

I saw this over at the Velvet, but I read far more than I post there. I laughed, I laughed long and hard.

I dropped the ball on mentioning this here. My fingers hurt from too much typing.

I know what you mean. My eyes were burning just from trying to keep up with the tour's reading (which was still a lot of fun). Sorry to refer to you as "the powers that be"; I thought there was some other fella involved.
