Who do you write like?

Post Reply New Topic

Entering a link provided in another thread, I just accidentally encountered this site: http://iwl.me/ Do you want to know whose style of writing yours resembles? Check it then. I pasted the text of my Garfield fanfic into it and it turns out its style resembles H. G. Wells' one

I don't think this is legitimate.

The results for my other fanfiction stories:

Dreamland - I write like P. G. Wodehouse
The Catalysts - I write like Vladimir Nabokov
Badgunky - I write like H. P. Lovecraft
The Nobodies - I write like Kurt Vonnegut
They Never Discovered Their Powers - I write like Arthur Clarke
Gran's Revenge - I write like James Joyce
Job Interview - I write like James Joyce
Basement - I write like Cory Doctorow
Mutant Message Board - I write like Cory Doctorow
Omega Bobby - I write like Arthur Clarke

Legitimate like lawful? Why not?

Mary Shelley.

Chuck Palahniuk. Love Fight Club, by the way!

Me too. As for the topic of taking things literally - before I was explained this, I thought the main hero at the end indeed went to real heaven.

Cory Doctorow

I'd never heard of him before, but anyone who writes a blog called Boing Boing must be alright!

According to that site, I write like Dan Brown.

I found that site a while ago. I write mostly like James Joyce.

I write, like my dad.

Got different authors for different snippets. A lot of Stephen King though. Bleh.

out of boredom, i just used a small excerpt from the conceptual story of my original comic, and
it says i write like Stephen King
interesting.

you know what, i think it would be fascinating to paste in the text that people submitted to the website, just so that people can get a taste of what each other's style is really like.

I tried three different texts.
Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Adams, and Dan Brown, apparently.

I mostly write like Stephenie Meyer and Stephen King.

I write like Anne Rice. Awesome.
