I Write Like...

[blairmacg]

So over at aberwyn 's LJ, there is a link to a nifty site that lets you paste in a chunk of test, then supposedly analyzes it determine which famous author your writing seems most like.

Since I can't just do things once, I did it twice. The first piece was from The Drunkard, a story I've been kicking around for ages and fervently wish I could complete to my satisfaction. It's about as far opposite in style from Sword and Chant--the second sample I submitted--as I could get.

The Drunkard resulted in the claim I write like Margaret Mitchell.

Sword and Chant seems, to the analyzer, to be like William Shakespeare.

I'm... not certain what I think about the accuracy.

Since I got Ursula K. Le Guin, I'd say the accuracy is suspect in the extreme.
