Who Do You Write Like?




I write like
Chuck Palahniuk
I Write Like by Mémoires, journal software. Analyze your writing!

My totally cool writing pal Marcie Bridges shared this link with me and I love it so much I thought today I would share it with you.

You may have already heard of the I Write Like site where you paste a portion of your writing and it gives you a famous author you write like. Well, I'm sure I am no way close to being as awesome as Chuck Palahniuk, author of Fight Club or Issac Asimov, author of I Robot (he is the author I got when I entered a portion of my first MS into the dealy. How cool is that?). But still, a girl can dream!

I thought you all might find it cool. Check it out, it only takes a second to do. I'd love it if you'd tell me...

I got Cory Doctorow. Kind of a cool link!

I did this a couple of months ago and my blog was like Cory Doctorow and my manuscript was like Stephen King.

Pretty cool!

Fun link. I put beginnings of different chapters from my children's fantasy novel and got: Novel – Dan Brown, Rudyard Kipling, J. D. Salinger, Jack London, Stephen King, Chuck Palahniuk, James Joyce

Blog: H. P. Lovecraft and J K Rowling (funny because I had pasted my post about Harry potter - hmmm interesting...)

Great fun!

How fun :) I tried a few different samples of my work and got: Dan Brown, Arthur Clark, and Chuck Palahniuk. I guess I write like a man :)

Deana said...

Thanks guys, I'm glad you like it:)

Freya- I wonder if you were to say another big characters name, if you would get that author. Hmmm, I'll have to try that.

Juliana- Aww, that is awesome Juliana:) I'd be good with it. I'd be good with most anyone though:)

Angie- I guess I do too:) We write the same sort of I suppose...cool

Too funny! I've had a growing blog post where I'm collecting links to different quizzes for writers, and it was inspired by this site. Maybe I'll post it next week. Thanks for the reminder!

My Russian historical novel came up like H.P. Lovecraft, and my contemporary historical women's fiction family saga came up like Chuck Palahniuk. I analyzed text from one of my Atlantic City books (contemporary historical fiction) and also got Palahniuk.

Emily R. King said...

I got the same as you, Deana! Chuck Palahniuk. Awesome!

I got Stephen King... though to be fair, I also got Bram Stoker once, so I'm probably just an able magpie. So glad I get to follow your blog, though it took me far to long to get here!!! Thanks Deana, and thanks again for visiting my blog and being supportive!

Deana said...

Debbie- Well you are so welcome:)

Emily- What do you know? Something else we have in common:)

S.E. Very cool authors! I like it:) And I'm glad you made it over here, it doesn't matter how long it took:)
