I Write Like

Since we've been thinking about how what we read inspires or influences what we write, I thought it might be fun for you to check out a website I've seen that analyzes a bit of your own writing and tells you what published author your writing is similar to.

I tried it with one of my blog posts and evidently I write like Dan Brown. I know who that is, but I haven't read any of his books. Interesting.

Go to I Write Like and try it yourself. Leave a comment on this post telling us your results (and what you think of them) when you do.

    I tested a few of my passages and got a few different authors. However, the following three are the most noticeable that popped up : Stephen King, Oscar Wilde, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. :D
