I found this on one of the Nano forums -- it's fun. Apparently I write like L. Frank Baum.

Asimov, King, Joyce, Wallace, Lovecraft, Palahniuk. Cut out sections of your piece and the author mysteriously changes quite often.

Dan Brown.

Oh dear lord.

I tried with a different section and it gave me Ray Bradbury, and for poetry, it said Lovecraft. All in all, I don't know how accurate this all is, and why it seems to think I have anything in common with a mystery writer. xD

I entered the first paragraph of Chekhov's "The Lady With the Little Dog" and it labelled it as Tolstoy. :?

In other news, it seems I write like Stephen King.

You are going to love some of your characters because they are you, or some facet of you, and you are going to hate some characters for the same reason.
