Fantasy Geeks discussion

(I hope this was added to the right folder). I found this neat widget on Jack's site, the widget is called Analyze Your Writing. I tried it with my story Floodgate and it says I write like David Foster Wallace. I hadn't a clue who he was so I googled him and he's the writer of Infinite Jest (I heard so much about that book). I'm not sure if it's accurate or not, but it's really neat. I read a sample of Infinite Jest and it doesn't seem like I write like him :/

Either way, try it yourself: http://iwl.me/

I tried it again with the story 12 (Twelve) and Poem of the Happy Dragon and it said I write like JRR Tolkien, then I used dragons of atlanta and it said I write like William Gibson, and then I used Fragments of a Dragon's Memories and it said I write like H.P. Lovecraft! I tried my story Religion and Cult and it said I write like Ursurla K. Le Guin. Hmmmmm......did anyone get these same results?

James Joyce (ahhh!) J RR Tolkien and Anne Rice. Very amusing. Don't know how they sum it up, but it's more for fun than factual. :)

I got those too! Awesome! I like to think its more factual than fiction, kinda like pretend.
