The mistake the author did, was writing a parody. It is very hard to write a good parody.

the best parody i've ever read was 'the original pervy hobbit fancier's journal'

it's just briljant, to bad, they didn't make one about return of the king

The guy is kind of funny though. Maybe if he wrote original work it would be pretty good.

She wrote for SNL, and I guess that's considered "original"

Terry Pratchett's "Wyrd Sisters" isn't a bad parody of Macbeth.

Also Bored of The rings is a good parody of lord of the rings.
