"I Write Like..."

Michael Merriam. Which shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.

Well timed! I *just* got done uploading a very similar post...

Great minds and all that!

Who would have thought? :)

It was an interesting exercise - as I commented in cloudscudding's blog: The intrepid Elli passage from Veil of Whispers turned up with J.K. Rowling, but the "going down in a spray of frog blood" passage from Shadow Summit yielded William Gibson. I must be a chameleon...

I plugged in five different passages and got five different answers.

I know!

Yeah - I think ultimately that's the way it goes with programs like that. I think Cloudscudding got different author results for a couple of passages within the same book.

It would be funny to actually enter an excerpt from one of these author's books and see what the system churns out. :-)
