Satan and Suns

I was looking for a completely different website when I stumbled across this fun little free web-based app called: I Write Like

You type or copy and paste in a sample of your writing then click Analyze and you get your result.

For fun I took the stories I wrote for past S&S events.

The first one, from the first Yule Ball, gave me the result: Stephen King

The next one, from the first Carnivale, the result was: Arthur Clarke

The next one; from the second Carnivale: J.K .Rowling

The last one, from the Asylum event: Arthur Clarke again.

So, yeah. Maybe take the results with a grain of salt. It's a free web-based app. But it was fun to see if the result changed with the stories I copied and pasted.

Try it, if you feel so inclined. And, please share your results. I'm curious as to whether they have more than just these three famous authors in their analysis.

Seeing the results were fun and interesting.


For a topic I wrote entitled 'The Underground' I got Arthur Clarke

For the start/my first post to the neverending story game I got Stephen King
Second post of the game was Neil Gaiman

And for a thread were I recount a sleep paralysis I experienced, I got Bram Stoker

I m not always type in English but for some replies I wrote, I got James Joyce. Cory Doctorow. David Foster Wallace

It says I write like a guy from the early 19th century, which makes sense since everyone tells me I write like a Victorian and they can barely understand what I am trying to say. So I guess it has a level of accuracy to it.

Dan Brown (born June 22, 1964) is an American author of thriller fiction, best known for the 2003 bestselling novel, The Da Vinci Code.

I'll take it

I put a few of my threads in the analyzer. I am overwhelmingly a cross between Agatha Christie and Anne Rice.

Ripping Apart Old Wounds - Agatha Christie

Spirit Communication and Mental Illness - Arthur Clarke

Sludge Entities Mistaken For Demons - Anne Rice

The Balance of Mature Darkness - Agatha Christie

Shadow Work and Hauntings from Within - Agatha Christie

A Dance with Mammon Part 3: Breaking Down - Anne Rice

A Camel Ride with Paimon - Confidence - Anne Rice

I like both Anne Rice and Agatha Christie so this makes me happy. Thanks for posting this guesswho! It was a lot of fun ^_^

hm it is interesting i got David Foster Wallace a few times, HP Lovecraft and Bram Stoker lol

I tried several things I wrote and Anne Rice apparently lol

Thank you for trying it out and for sharing your results, Celtic Star. It seems that your writing and my writing have similar styles - as far as your first two results.
It appears that we are members of the Fantasy, Sci-Fi & Horror trifecta!

Thank you for sharing your results, bayboychun! Have you read any of these authors? I know of James Joyce. I'm not familar with Cory Doctorow. But I'm very pleasantly surprised to see David Foster Wallace's name.

Those who can read Victorian are privileged to understand what you are trying to say, Noctua! I doubted the app because I could only see my own results. It's been great to have you and other forum members try it out and share your results. Thank you!

Thank you for sharing your result, Velca. I love thrillers! I don't read them often enough. Too much backlog of fantasy, sci-fi and horror.

Thank you for trying out so many of your posts in the app and sharing their results, Akelta! Adding mystery into the mix with Agatha Christie. Intriguing.

Thank you for sharing your result, Eilana! I know, when you keep getting the same result, sometimes you wonder, is that the only name in the program, right?

James Joyce twice. And then Oscar Wilde and H.P. Lovecraft. What a wonderfully weird mixture lol...
