I write like...

Whose writing style does your own most resemble?

I got David Foster Wallace. Theres a nifty badge you can post on a blog but I guess it doesn't work on forums.

I don't really know who he is, but after reading about him on Wikipedia I'm going to take that as a compliment.

 

i put in three seperate paragraphs and got james joyce, margaret mitchell and jjr tolkien :mickey:

 

i got http://www.amazon.com/Kurt-Vonnegut/e/B000APYE16/ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1?qid=1305739796&sr=1-1"]Kurt Vonnegut.

 

I write like crap

I'd love to write like Clockwork Orange, the made up words feel good on the brainpiece

 

haha nice. Thats quite a range. I keep getting David Foster Wallace. I posted a short story then just for kicks a couple of longer posts taken from ol' HF. I think its because I use the word fuck so much...Mr Wallace must be an avid fan of the f bomb as well.

 

this has been done before.. its cool,, Im just going to say I write like a doctor,, 1/2 print 1/2 cursive..
Very tiny do I write also.. Which is kinda weird since im 1/2 blind too.

 

I don't write like anyone; I have no standard style, for better or worse.

But let's see:
Stephen King (ew), Neil Gaiman (omfg, I love me), Dan Brown, David Foster Wallace, Arthur Clarke, William Gibson


Test:
Lewis Carrol write like Lewis Carrol

General Ulysses S Awesome writes like Raymond Chandler

 

Neil Gaiman is a force of nature, his writing goes into your dreams to live, people will quote him without ever reading him.

It's so creepy awesome!

 

I've mourned his characters like someone I loved truly died.

 

the man is a god with a pen... i'm still stunned from his saturday episode of dr who

 

Its funny you say that. A friend of mine keeps a notebook with her favorite Gaiman quotes. When I was reading over them I got the strangest feeling that I had read them all before even though I've never read Gaiman.

I once wrote a song influenced by Neverwhere even though I've never read the book. I just like the title.

Get out of my head, Neil Gaiman.

 

I got Tolstoy for a blog entry about lawn mowers and Lovecraft for a forum post about psychics. Good find.

 

So one of my works got Anne Rice, which I found strange. I've read Interview With a Vampire, and didn't really see the comparison. Another one of my works got Chuck Palahniuk, which was also a bit of a shock, but a good shock I suppose. I mean, who doesn't like Fight Club?

 

I got Edgar Allen Poe for an old poem I just posted.

now to try a regular post... Cory Doctorow?
(I'll look him up l8r)

another post H. P. Lovecraft

 

I got Vladimir Nabovok lol

 

Charles Dickens.

 

I really dislike the book. But the movie was awesome.

It's still a compliment though, he's had some stinkers, but he has some great ones (Rant, Survivor, Choke, Invisible Monsters)

I didn't get the comparison to the writers I got at all.

I wanna see your poem!

 

i have a terrible writing style, though i think of think it's unique - i use to many dashes. oh well.

 

Dashes are cool.

My one professor hated how much I love the semi-colon. Fuck her though, she thought 'though' was a slang term.

 

she sounds like an id - iot, though.
