Stephanie Meyer.
That's what it said: Stephanie Meyer.
If you have zero idea what I'm talking about, check out the NPR story here.
To find out who you write like, submit a writing sample here.
Update: I just submitted another sample (the Gladwell post below) and now it says Ray Bradbury.
This may sound strange, but I'd much rather be like Ray Bradbury than Stephanie Meyers.
Update #2: Using the zucchini post (below the Gladwell post), it now says Margaret Atwood!
Yay!
Hmm. Is it possible I have a consistency issue in my writing?
I used the beginning of my first book, the beginning of my second book, and part of a blog and got Stephen King, JK Rowling, and Oscar Wilde.
ReplyDeleteFrankly, I think it only looks at certain words and phrases!
You are multi-talented, multi-personality. Yet one of a kind.
ReplyDeleteMine said Jeanne Raisin :) kidding...
ReplyDeleteHmm, funny concept. Pretty sure it's only looking at words, and maybe sentence length. I'll bet you write just like...you!
ReplyDeleteHa! I got Steven King!!
ReplyDeleteI submitted a blog post on one of those generators and it told me "Steven King"
ReplyDeleteThat spooked me enough to not try again. ha!
(visiting from Far Side's sidebar!)
Ha! What a bunch of baloney..it said Kurt Vonnegut and David Foster Wallace..two men..I write like a man..plus I have never heard of these yahooes..or read anything by them either. But then again they possible have not heard of me either:)
ReplyDeleteConsistency is overrated :p I'll do the test when I get home tonight.
ReplyDeleteUpdate: Arthur C. Clarke
ReplyDeleteIt tells me I write like Cory Doctorow. H'mm. Not that bad, actually.
ReplyDeleteIt says I write like "Random Blogger".
