I put in a recipe for zucchini parmesan crisps and it said I wrote like Margaret Atwood. When I put in some actual excerpts of my work, I got Corey Doctorow, whom I've never read. I don't read or write sci fi at all, so it's kind of an odd result.
Meh, well I put in snippets from my other stories and got different results on every one, from Baum to King. Still didn't see anyone else get Adams so I guess that style is pretty unique. (Long, run-on sentences and long, unimportant tangents, lol)
I tried another portion of my m/s, and it came up with Margaret Atwood. Maybe that means my work reads like a recipe for zucchini parmesan crisps.
P. G. Wodehouse, Douglas Adams and Anne Rice... Don't really get how this is works because it seems to change authors everytime I add one paragraph from the same story... Anyway it's still interesting.
My writing, at least on a mechanical level, seems to most resemble Arthur C. Clarke (4/9). Other results were William Gibson, J.D. Salinger, Dan Brown and Ursula Le Guin. It seems to vary depending on what genre/style I'm aiming for, so it must be to do with sentence structure and maybe density too. The four stories that came up as Clarke were all SF, and the 9th extract was from a historical story set in 1200s. The result for that was William Shakespeare. I lol'd. EDIT: Just pasted an extract from the beginning of Philip K. Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? and it said: You write like Dan Brown. And Dan Brown writes like H.P. Lovecraft.
I got William Gibson, Stephen King, and Arthur C. Clark. Ironically, I haven't read any of their work (they are, however, on my to-read list).
I'm a bit skeptical here. The same authors keep appearing over and over. I got Arthur Clarke and Cory Doctorow by the way.
