Is This Appropriationing? And How?

I've given this a lot of thought, but I still can't quite decide whether to write a pastiche of "Jane Eyre" or the recently-discovered de Sade novel "Smacking Molly's Bottom - The Marks of Interrogation".

So I've decided to meld the two books into one. Sort of a mix of the two "styles", as it were.

The problem is I don't know how to go about doing it, why I should do it, or what drugs to take while writing it. And, to be honest, I can't really be bothered doing it at all. I simply have no interest in this whole project. Not one bit. It's nothing but a complete waste of time.

What I really want from you people is this: if I do this, is it really appropriationing? I'm so confused.

Help. Thanks.

    I would consider the description of "Top Tier Troll" in this section to be a badge of honour.

    The idea of combining "Smacking Molly's Bottom - The Marks of Interrogation" with the one book which has done so much to destroy the abominable pseudo study of 'Eng. Lit." as it is taught to schoolboys - to be a mark of genius.

    That's because you have a xanax pill for a brain.

    You're overthinking . . . try various forms of inebriation, strict meter, free verse, writing up side down and then shut up . . . but most of all, shred what you've written and go on to the next thing, because someone has already done that . . . in the final analysis, it's only for yourself, so why should I care . . . exactly . . . you're a genius.

    How about instead of wasting time trying to get strangers on the internet to do your thinking for you, you do something radical and work it out yourself? Yes! That's a great idea!
