Huh.
Yuletide assignment: more generic than most I got - basically it amounts to "more of what canon does so well" (which I sympathize with, since I have fandoms where I want just that, too). I can work with that, since I love the canon in question (obviously) and it leaves me ample manvoeuvring room. But because there's no specific prompt, I'm currently at sea as to what the plot might be...
Meanwhile, I did a meme and fed it some of my stories in various fandoms. Fitting the day, the first result I got was this:
I write like
Edgar Allan Poe
I Write Like. Analyze your writing!
What surprises me about this is that the story in question was a Breaking Bad one, Blood Ties, about the relationship between Marie and Skyler. Mind you, I love Poe, but he's not the voice that comes to mind when thinking of either Breaking Bad in general or this story in particular.
Next, I tried one of my adventures into RPF, to wit, the one where Mary Renault meets Alfred Hitchcock, Saving Mrs Fleming. This led to vile slander:
I write like
Dan Brown
I Write Like. Analyze your writing!
Were it the real life prominent names? Hitch trying to lure Mary to the cinema side at the British Museum? I protest, anyway.
Still reeling, I tried a Once upon a Time story next, the one about Snow and Regina. Which had this result:
I write like
Anne Rice
I Write Like. Analyze your writing!
As long as it's early Anne Rice, when she still had an editor, I'm good with this. (And suspect the result came through all the fairy tale related words.)
Anyway, it seems I write differently for every fandom?
