Baaaa

I gave it this.

It said this:
I write like
James Joyce

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

 

Hah, you random search string meme thingy, let's see how consistent you are.

I gave it a bite of this. (The excerpt is very "children's book,")

I fed it two randomly selected waka. You guessed it, James Joyce.

And some of Jehanne's iambic pentameter couplets. William Shakespeare, unsurprisingly.

The kicker? I've never read any Joyce. He never came up in any of the literature courses I happened to take.
I probably should......

Apparently I write either like Dan Brown or Stephen King.

I got James Joyce, JK Rowling and Stephen King with different entries.

As for Joyce, start off with something short, like The Dead. The last paragraph is pure poetry.

I prefer his short stories to his novels, which for me were pure torture as I tried to hack my way through them.

When writing about costume stuff, it's James Joyce. When it's life in general it was Chuck Palahniuk (Fight Club).
As long as I don't usually write like James Joyce's letters to Nora, I guess the world will be fine. Unless, of course, dear friends, costume pornography is the next big thing after furniture pornography. LOL
