Forums - General - Which Author Do You Write Like?

Translated and posted two random chapters of my unfinished book and got Dan Brown. Does it mean I'll be a successful writer? :D

 

Edit - then I tried to fool the script by posting two Harry Potter book chapters with different names and he got JK Rowling. I think the program has author books or at least chapters uploaded into it and search your text for similar structures. Interesting.

On sort of a side note.  To those who consider themselves authors (or soon to be).  How much/often do you read?  Aside from class assigned books, I haven't read anything in close to 10 years.

I'm in the final stages of writing my second book and most people seem to find it strange that I don't read anymore.  My personal opinion is that I would rather spend my free time writing rather than reading.  I also feel that I have gathered enough influence throughout my youth to find my own style. 

One reason why I do this is because my lyrics and poetry are heavily influenced by what music I am listening to at the moment.

I read all the time. Seeing how other authors handled tricky scenes like sex, fast-paced action, emotional stuff that would bring you to tears and such always help me a lot. As far as story is concerned, I search insipiration in just about anything - music, games, books, internet, poetry, TV series and so on. Also since I write science fiction / dark fantasy, reading all the limyaael rants helped a lot. That woman is a genious.

Not to mention I always search inspiration on just about anything. But of course when it really comes to it the best to improve yourself is just writing.

Total Bullshit. Just put in the first two paragraphs of my lego harry potter review and before sending it I thought to myself " I wonder if it will give me J.K Rowling?" and it did.

Edit: just put in an original piece of mine and got back Stephanie Meyer.

Yes, please do.

 

On topic: Does it matter if I use something I wrote in Romanian?

4 reviews... they all gave me Cory Doctoraow



If I was to personally compare my writing style to anyone, it would be J.K Rowling.

According to that website however:

David Foster Wallace

Cory Doctorow

Arthur Clarke

David Wallace??? I'm honored! I remember partially reading "Brief interview with Hideous Men" a few years back. I have the sudden urge to pick that up from the library now.
