{{examples}}
== Anime and Manga ==
* As mentioned above, [[Meganekko|Chihaya's]] manga is about a samurai. This samurai is surrounded by four girls. Incidentally, ''[[Asu no Yoichi]]'' is also about a samurai surrounded by four girls.
* [[Meganekko|Toujou]] from ''[[Ichigo One Hundred Percent|Ichigo 100%]]'' writes fantasy novels. At one point, the main character has to choose among some girls. Just as Manaka has to choose.
** Also, the films they make together differ very little from reality.
* Episode one00 from ''[[The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya]]''
* ''[[True Tears]]''' main character, Shin'ichiro, is drawing a story about a rooster that tries to fly. This 'flying' aspect is actually the point of the entire anime.
* [[Unlucky Childhood Friend|Haruka]] from ''[[Kimi ga Nozomu Eien]]'' desperately wanted an image book about saying goodbye. Which is exactly what she does.
* The entire premise of one episode of ''[[SeitokaiStudent noCouncil's IchizonDiscretion]]''.
* In the epilogue of ''[[Eyeshield 21]]'', Karin becomes a mangaka, and her editor asks her to use her experience in American Football to write a manga about the sport, with the legendary runningback Eyeshield 21 as the main character.
* In ''[[Keroro Gunsou]]'', Aki uses Keroro and his friends as the inspiration for her latest manga series.
 
 
== Film ==
* ''Secret Window'', based on the book by [[Stephen King]], starred Johnny Depp as the [[Ax Crazy|psycho writer]].
* Both the main characters from [[Throw Momma Fromfrom the Train]] do this at the end after the plot is resolved. Billy Crystal's character (the one who is an actual author) is outraged that his former student, played by Danny [[De Vito]]DeVito, may have beaten him to market with the same story and seems to consider actually murdering the man out of anger, but [[De Vito]]DeVito's turns out to be a children's book with a family-friendly ending and they end up happy for each other and successful.
 
 
== Literature ==
* ''Secret Window, Secret Garden'' by [[Stephen King]].
* ''[[The Canterbury Tales (Literature)|The Canterbury Tales]]''
* ''Invitation to the Game''
 
== Live -Action TV ==
 
== Live Action TV ==
* ''[[Seinfeld]]''. The [[Show Within the Show]] is about incidents surrounding the main characters' lives. (I.E: yeah, it's about nothing.)
* In ''[[Supernatural]]'', a character is {{spoiler|chosen to become a prophet of God, and begins having dreams chronicling the adventures of the lead characters. (Basically, he's seeing what the show's audience is seeing.)}} But, not knowing that his visions are true, he proceeds to write them down as books and publish them under a pen name. Needless to say, he's a bit shocked when he finds out the truth, and is flung headlong into his own world filled with demons and monsters.
** Of course it is later implied that {{spoiler|said character is actually God.}}
* The titular character of ''[[Bones]]'' writes novels about her life as a criminal anthropologist. This is actually [[Truth in Television]] - the show is [[Very Loosely Based on a True Story|loosely based on]] the life of [[Real Life]] forensic anthropologist Kathy Reichs, who wrote a series of novels based on her life and career.
* In the US version of ''[[Queer Asas Folk]]'', Michael and Justin write and illustrate their own comic book, Rage, which features Brian as the lead character and tells stories right out of the characters' own lives.
