I Write Like...

For those who haven't heard there is a new website out in Internet World called I Write Like where you can have a few paragraphs of your writing analyzed and their algorithm will tell you which writer your prose most resembles.

Always willing to try something a bit goofy, I had the program analyze three different paragraphs from three different stories (from my book Passing Fancies).   It seems I'm quite the diverse writer because I got three different answers.

Here are the results:


1-  My short story, The Wild Hunt:



I write like
J. R. R. Tolkien
I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!


2- My short story, A Funny Murder:



I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!



3- My fiction short, Dark, New World:



I write like
Arthur C. Clarke
I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!



Now how can I disagree wiyth a pedigree like that!

  1. The Epilogue of "Where You Belong" came out as Stephen King. So have a number of people's writing. I think it's rigged.
