I write like... meme

I copied some paragraphs from my Sin City Kevin fan fic, and got:

I write like
Chuck Palahniuk

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

No idea who this author is or what types of books he writes, though I have come across the name before. Will have to investigate when I have time.


And this was the result when I used text from a loooong-going WIP. O_o

I write like
Vladimir Nabokov

You shouldn't complain. I entered part of a fanfic and got DAN BROWN. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Then I entered some origific and got James Joyce. There's hope for me yet.

*giggle* Um, sorry. ;) I haven't read Brown, but heard enough about his novels to not feel any particular need to read them.

Not complaining - just surprised. :) Then again, Nabokov wrote Lolita, and the text from my WIP definitely was a steamy and a bit unusual scene... However I can't lay claim to "complex plots, clever word play, and use of alliteration" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_nabokov)!

Also looked at Chuck Palahniuk's Wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Palahniuk) and seeing the definition of transgressional/transgressive fiction (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transgressional_fiction), it does make sense, considering my Kevin story definitely "focuses on characters who feel confined by the norms and expectations of society and who break free of those confines in unusual and/or illicit ways."

Vladimir Nabokov is the author of "Lolita" - and that's the extent of my knowledge about him. :) Apparently the other author wrote "Fight Club" (the novel on which the film is based).

Apparently, I'm Charles Dickens - no idea why?!

LOL now that's a really strange one!
