Despite its brevity, it apparently took three people to write this story, the author's note citing contributions from her friends Susannah and Sarah. The author's note also says they got the idea for the story from listening to the Music/BonJovi song "It's My Life." The story's infamy occurred following its [[https://pottersues.livejournal.com/368909.html discovery]] by the [=anti-=]MarySue Website/LiveJournal Pottersues in 2006.

The story is a rewrite of the end of the fifth book, ''Literature/HarryPotterAndTheOrderOfThePhoenix'', namely the scene in which an enraged Harry trashes Dumbledore's office. In the canon scene, Dumbledore eventually convinced him to calm down. In this version, Harry does ''not'' calm down. Instead, he jumps out the window, turns into a phoenix for some reason, and flies away. And that's the whole story. It's [[FlashFiction only 535 words]], including the author's note and IDoNotOwn disclaimer.

->''IT'S MY LIFE''
''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/1837471/1/ Phoenix's Life]]'' is a classic SoBadItsGood ''Literature/HarryPotter'' fanfic, posted on Website/FanFictionDotNet by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/287211/Genkai-Lady Genkai Lady]] in 2004.

!!This story contains examples of:
* DeusExMachina: Harry is apparently falling to his death, but then he suddenly turns into a phoenix for no explained reason.
* DrivenToSuicide: Harry, possibly. It's not clear whether he knew before jumping that he would turn into a phoenix.
* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Needless to say, Harry's ability to turn into a phoenix is ''not'' established in the ''Potter'' canon.
* NotSoStoic: As in the original scene, Dumbledore remains calm even as Harry yells at him and smashes up his office. It's only when Harry decides to jump out the window that Dumbledore is "shocked" and starts "shouting after him."
* PercussiveTherapy: Like in the canon scene this is based on, Harry takes out his anger on Dumbledore's possessions.
* PurpleProse: The final paragraph is written in a very lyrical and would-be profound style.
* RageAgainstTheMentor: Like in the original scene, Harry is very mad at Dumbledore.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Harry runs, er, flies away from his own story.
* SophisticatedAsHell:
-->''And some say, as he soared into the sun set, that he yelled "IT'S MY LIFE" before he retreated into the clouds to never return.''
* TantrumThrowing: As in canon. The difference is that here Harry's adolescent hissy fit receives a magical vindication.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Since Harry flew away "to never return," what happened with the war against Voldemort?
