Awe, you guys. I took this quiz (that Eric recommended to me) that determines which author my writing style most closely resembles and this is what I got:
Love it! Regardless of the fact that it's so not true because I couldn't even come close to his poetic prose, but it's still nice to see.
Take it here if you'd like and let me know who you get! All I did was copy and paste my last blog entry into a box for analysis.
I was Douglas Adams. Which was weird. And nowhere near as classy as yours!
ReplyDeleteI got Joyce. Ha!
ReplyDeleteI got Joyce - Ha!
ReplyDeleteI write like Kurt Vonnegut - who just happens to be my favorite author! How cool is that?! Great post! Love the idea of having my writing analyzed - I read about this site in the Guardian and had to check it out! Of course one of my entries wound up getting me the result of H.P. Lovecraft - Hmmm.
ReplyDeleteNadia - I love Vonnegut! That's awesome.
ReplyDeleteNymeth - I've never read any Joyce but you are a great writer and he's pretty renowned so good work :)
TeaDevotee - Adams? Really? That is weird.
That was fun, (although I'm a little confused), and don't write like anyone quite as illustrious as Nabokov. My writing came up with David Foster Wallace and Stephen King. ??
ReplyDeleteI also write like Kurt Vonnegut. Guess its time to read Slaughterhouse-five to see if thats true or not....
ReplyDeleteI got Douglas Adams - but I've never read him and my writing is far from comical! Aha!
ReplyDeleteI took about six excerpts from my novel. I got Jonathan Swift, Stephen King, David Foster Wallace twice and... wait for it... Dan Brown. I thought I was talented until I realized I write like that Scooby-Doo episode writer. I am doing a blog post on this.
