just a little skeptical

I just c&p'ed my Utena fic into the text-analyzer that everyone's been using recently, and it told me I write like William Gibson. I haven't actually read anything of Gibson's (including Neuromancer), but I also hadn't seen that result come up for anyone before.

I write like
William Gibson

I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!

Following that, I posted part of another entry, and it told me I write like Dan Brown. Bearing that indignity in mind, I posted the rest of my entry, and then I was told I apparently write like H.P. Lovecraft. Very reliable algorithm there.

All I'm saying is, if I HAVE to write like one of the mostly white, male authors that come up consistently for this meme, could it at least be someone like Ray Bradbury? Please?

Well, at least you don't write like Vladimir Nabokov? Lolita always gave me the skeevies, thanks meme. XD

I quite like his writing style, actually! Even if you don't like the content of his work, I have trouble faulting him as a prose stylist. XD That might make the Dan Brown result slightly more bearable, but I don't feel like rereading his stuff to find out.
