Since we've been thinking about how what we read inspires or influences what we write, I thought it might be fun for you to check out a website I've seen that analyzes a bit of your own writing and tells you what published author your writing is similar to. I tried it with one of my blog posts and evidently I write like Dan Brown. I know who that is, but I haven't read any of his books. Interesting.
Go to I Write Like and try it yourself. Leave a comment on this post telling us your results (and what you think of them) when you do.
I appearantly write like Edgar Allen Poe. I've read a lot of his writings in the past, so I am not suprised that it all influenced my style of writing. I just don't think I'm as mentally disturbed as he was haha (at least I hope not)
ReplyDeleteWell, aparently I write like Stephenie Meyer. I find that slightly odd and somewhat irksome.

ReplyDeleteI write like Cory Doctorow, he is the author of many science-fiction novels. He also writes fantasy! Seems to be right up my aley:)
ReplyDeleteI write like H.P. Lovecraft - a gothic novelist who writes horror stories. Not really my thing, but maybe I should try it out?
ReplyDeleteI tried two of my text posts just to see if I would get two different authors, haha. I got Stephenie Meyer the first time, which I guess I can relate to... I've only read a few chapters of some of her books and they're okay; not really in my interest. I also go Cory Doctorow, who I've never heard from, but his books seem like something I'd like to read. :)
