The Shining Example For Tomorrow's Writers... May All Gods Have Pity On Them

Are you in a bad mood? Could you use some sarcasm? Are you amazed at the atrocities that are becoming the examples for future writers? Do you think the Twilight series took a tail-dive, burst through hell, located a worm-hole, and did the whole thing over again for the next three books? Are you disgusted with Mary-Sue protagonists? Do you wish to see the mocking of Mary-Sue protagonists? Do you want to see what just made my day?

Then go forth and read. Read and laugh and pray the quality of literature improves before we loose an entire generation of potential writers to anti-plots, unbelievable protagonists, helpless female leads, uber-heroes, thesaurus abuse, and more cliches than you can shake a stick at.
