I Should Cocoa! I write like ...

This came from huskyteer. I entered my most recent journal post as text and I got:

I write like
James Joyce

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

What rubbish. Have a go?

Snap!

Charles Dickens here!!

Lucky you!

I am a bit suspicious of their method of analysis

[land-girl.livejournal.com]

Stephen King?!

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

?????
Now that I really don't get!

I don't think I have read more than a cover, so I can't really comment. Perhaps it was the bit in my last post about big fires and hunting game in Africa?

I understand he's actually a very good writer but like you, I haven't read any of his books. I just don't like scary horror.

'On Writing' is really excellent, though he does share plot details from his fiction that I'd rather not know.

I had a go and unfortunately it threw up "Dan Brown" as the answer, so we'll sweep this one under the carpet. I wonder if my bank manager is aware?

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Hee!

I got James Joyce for a blog post and Vladimir Nabokov for a couple of paras from a short story. Which I think translates as my blog entry is boring and my short story has a 12-year-old heroine!

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

No, I think you should be impressed by Nabokov.

Apprarently I write like Margaret Atwood.

I didn't know she wrote car reviews!

Wardy

Good one!

Oh, dear. I fed it my latest entry (the "cattle rustling" one) and it came up with Dan Brown! To be fair, it does say it needs several paragraphs, and that was only one sentence.

The longer entry before that gave me Stephen King, which does not make me very happy either.

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

You're in good company, though.

[debodacious.livejournal.com]

PG Wodehouse apparently. Yeah, right.

Old bean.

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

I say!

First I got Dan Brown from a blog post (oh dear), then a male American professor I hadn't heard of.
Liked your garden post too. Very impressive to have planted everything straight away.

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Everyone is offended by getting 'Dan Brown' but think of the money!

Thank goodness it has now rained on my new planting.

[geraniumcat.livejournal.com]

Nabokov, me - I rather think not!

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

He was awfully good!
