My obituary:
The world mourned today at the news of the death of Antonia, aged 86. The multiple prize winning novelist and sometime world leader passed peacefully in her sleep, but her life itself was far from peaceful. Triumphing over adversity at a young age, Antonia went from a single mother on welfare to Julian, now a famous rock star, to become one of the most distinguished and accomplished writers of our time. From her novels, Booker Prize winning The Bum Cum Hour and The Girl With The Large Hat who went to Lithuania And Got The Squirts, to her ground breaking non-fiction works, including Pulitzer Prize winning Pheasant Most Fowl and Once I Ran A Forum. But it was her most renowned body of work Outer Mongolia, Inner Turmoil that catapulted Antonia from writer to world leader. After spending years in Mongolia and winning over the people with her wit, charm, stunning good looks, and natural talent for pronouncing words with at least seven syllables, Antonia was elected President of Mongolia. She served her term for 4 years, later becoming Outer Mongolia''s representative to the UN, but retired from politics early to return to her writing, and travel the world with her many dashing and intelligent lovers.
