Evolution (or Devolution) of Writing

Jul 15, 2010 23:06

Hey, there's a new meme in town, and I tested it on a few pieces I've written throughout the years.



I write like
David Foster Wallace
I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!

That was the omake opener in Eternity: Spellbound, one of the only two pieces I wrote in that tournament.



I write like
Chuck Palahniuk
I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!

That was my segment of the final opener in Eternity: Written in the Stars.



I write like
David Foster Wallace
I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!

Oh, look, it's him again. This time, it was my final closer in Eternity: Wayward Dawn.



I write like
Vladimir Nabokov
I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!

That was my first post in the final round of Eternity: Heart and Soul. It's the only piece of sponsor writing I analyzed.



I write like
Margaret Atwood
I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!

And finally, this was the post for the introduction thread (and technically the third prologue) of Eternity: Twilight of the Idol.

Now, this was an interesting little exercise, but I need some help with the... context. Even with those nice links to the works of each author this tool spits out, I have to say that I don't really know these authors; the only book among any of them that I've ever heard of is Fight Club, and I haven't read that. So, anyone more well read that I... what does this mean for my writing? Is it evolved? Devolving? Simply mutating from one state to another?
