I tried it with 3 different pieces of writing....came up twice with Stephen King and once with Margaret Mitchell.
Seems like a stretch from "The Stand" to "Gone With the Wind"...but then I always knew there was more than one voice in my head.

at least we're all Irish
I analyzed a post and got Bram Stoker.
Analysis of a poem yielded James Joyce. I write like a 19th c. Irishman?

I write like Cory Doctorow, who is someone I know nothing about. Oh, and Stephen King. I put a part of one of my short stories in for the first one and my poetry for the second. This is the piece that apparently reads like Stephen King to them: crimson streaks paint the sheets smudges in garnet decorate the bed red-rimmed eyes gaze without sight burgundy wine spilled in the fight one ruby shoe alone on the stoop colors of rage taint this day control takes the stage and there's nothing more to say Last edited by Gemme; 07-19-2010 at 10:00 PM. |

David Foster Wallace, whose prodigiously observant, exuberantly plotted, grammatically and etymologically challenging, philosophically probing and culturally hyper-contemporary novels, stories and essays made him an heir to modern virtuosos like Thomas Pynchon and Don DeLillo, an experimental contemporary of William T. Vollmann, Mark Leyner and Nicholson Baker and a clear influence on younger tour-de-force stylists like Dave Eggers and Jonathan Safran Foer,

James Joyce - I like Avant-garde.
Cory Doctorow - I had to Google him as I've not heard of him.

I write like
Gertrude Stein I used an emotional blog and it came back Gertrude Stein. From Wikipedia: Gertrude Stein, the youngest of a family of five children, was born on February 3, 1874, in Allegheny, Pennsylvania (merged with Pittsburgh in 1907)[2] to well-educated German Jewish parents, Daniel and Amelia Stein. Her father was a railroad executive whose investments in streetcar lines and real estate made the family wealthy. This screams of irony. I live in Old Allegheny, Pittsburgh and my Grandmothers name was Gertrude. Hmmm.
