I write like
Stephen King

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




I tried a few different snippets and got this three times, so let's go with it. My gayest bit had me as Raymond Chandler though; what's with that? I wonder about the Stephen King though too... none of it was horror! ;-P

You, too! I got Stephen King on one of my most romantic fics, and HP Lovecraft on the other! Mostly I got Chuck Palahniuk, though (Fight Club).

I'm curious as to their algorithm. I'm guessing something about sentence length; I don't what else, though. It's certainly not subject matter!

Ha! I have no idea, but I'd just like to see someone come up with a female writer... we all seem to be getting men (apart from Agatha Christie somewhere that I saw)! Maybe I should try writing more Scarlett O'Hara lines! ;-)

I did get Margaret Atwood on a crackfic. o.0 So maybe two women writers. Apparently no writers of color that anyone's gotten. :-/

Your icon is so perfect!

Probably some white middle-class guy who set it up...

And isn't it a great icon! [livejournal.com profile] alliecat8 made it from the lyrics of a Jimmy Buffett song - it suits Sawyer so well! ;-) This is another of hers.
