I write like Tolstoy!

According to this site, any way...

Cory Doctorow. Blogger/SF writer/journalist. I imagine many will sound like this guy because the only writings I used were from here, a message board. Let's see.

I used the first few paragraphs of the short story version of Heart String and got Kurt Vonnegut. So yay for me!

J.K. Rowling. My life has just been made.

Interesting. I used my usual posts here and got Mario Puzo (The Godfather---yeah boiiiiiii!!!!). I used my posts from the Survival of the Fittest threads and got Stephen King (yeah, I've never heard of him either lawl). It's offical, I fucking rock *plays air guitar*.

All my posts should end with someone getting shot and the theme from Godfather playing. *shoots the nearest poster---Godfather theme plays*


EDIT: I used this post and I still got Mario Puzo. I'm so fucking gangsta.

Okay, no lie. I'm soooo serious. T-Matts is possibly going to be peeved. I put in a short story I wrote out of spontaneity--NO, YOU CAN'T READ IT. --and I, apparently, write like Stephen King. That is awesome.

Never read any of King's stuff. *guilty* I honestly thought it was a very hackeneyed writing by me, being that I wrote it so quickly/spontaneously. And it's really about nothing. But I'm kind of proud of it now!

Pretty good writers, here, eh?

I guess so. Tolstoy, King, Vonnegut, and Rowling.

No Puzo? I am disappoint.


Add James Joyce to the list. I threw in some short stories and got that. Not surprised. Stream-of-consciousness for the mother-fucking win. *air guitar everywhere*

I got Stephen King when I pulled something I wrote forever ago.

H.P. Lovecraft.

Ooh, what'd you submit!?!

First I got Cory Doctorow when I used part of a book I'm writing. I included the bios I wrote for the characters in the book. I wrote them just for me, and not the book. When I cut out the bios and put the same part of the actual book I got Dan Brown. Then I put an earlier draft of the same book. It uses the same characters, but it's a different story. When I put that I got J. K. Rowling. I then put an even earlier draft of the book. Same story as the draft I put when I got J. K. Rowling, but it was slightly different. For that I got J. K. Rowling again. And finally, I put part of another book I'm working on and I got Isaac Asimov.

I didn't have anything else on this hard drive so I put in a chunk of my screenplay and it said I was Dan Brown. I've never read anything of his, but he sure can sell some books.

I'm wondering how it's done. Words used and structure? Because my short story was lackluster. IDK. Not to be a downer. :P

You....DOWNER!

i put in one of my shorts and got stephanie meyer.....no wonder nobody likes my writing.

^ Are you shitting me?!?! That's what I expected. A writer of her status. Ah well, c'est la vie.

Evidently I write like H. P. Lovecraft as well! I used an old review of the new Star Trek from my crappy ol' blog.

The first chapter of my latest novel.

I got Lovecraft and King from a review and a Retcon. Maybe I should see about something NOT comics related... I'm wondering if the word "mutant" is skewing things.

Aight, wrote two scenes from "my comic" and got Stephen King and Vladimir Nabokov respectively. While I'd never heard of the latter, reading about him makes me pleased to be associated with him in any way.

Sting sung about Nabakov.

I tried a variety of things I wrote and got...

H.P. Lovecraft
Cory Doctorow
Stephen King
H.P. Lovecraft
Dan Brown
Douglas Adams
Cory Doctorow

And last but not least....when I put in 14 pages from a horror story I started trying to write back in the 90's I got Chuck Palahniuk.


Weird.
