I write like Margaret Mitchell, P.G. Wodehouse, and James Joyce. At least that’s what this website says, after I submitted three different excerpts from The First Assassin to its analyzer. My latest NR article recalled Mario Puzo. My most recent Wall Street Journal piece was reminiscent of H.P. Lovecraft.
I am of course taking this all very seriously.
UPDATE: This is ingenious re: Twain/Cooper:
once again computers have proved that computers can’t write! loved your corner post; went there, fed it the contents of this, http://www.athensnews.com/ohio/article-31600-sea-salt-organic-sugar-what-exactly-does-this-mean.html , and was told i write like h.g. wells! h.g. wells! lord.
(for amusement, i sent it several paragraphs from twain’s “fenimore cooper’s literary offenses,” and it informed me that twain wrote like james fenimore cooper.)
thanks for posting the link, which is as much fun as it is useless.
