Breathe, Tae, Breathe. (ROTFL)

So, I got this from vashka_kat :

I write like
Arthur Conan Doyle

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

Cool!  That's awesome.

Except... not really.

That's what I got for a few paragraphs from the beginning of Call Waiting (one of the parts without sex), but when I tried some of the stuff from later on, I got Dan Brown.  Recent condom silliness gave me Chuck Palahniuk.  My Garion/Ce'Nedra smut gave me Vladimir Nabokov.  Several paragraphs from Hunger Persists gave me Stephen King, and then a later section gave me Kurt Vonnegut.

Sephiroth proposing to Maleficent?  James Joyce.  (If this doesn't make you laugh, nothing will.)

Oh, score!  Zack and Sora comparing summons also gives me Stephen King...

But Zack/Cloud/Tifa talking about smelly foods gives me another vote for Vladimir Nabokov.

...and a Kenshin/Kaoru elf story gives me Stephen King again.

So... really, I write like a man...?  Maybe?  And most often like Stephen King...?

Wait.  Trying my Draco/Hermione story gives me J.K.Rowling.

I guess I write like everyone?

Let me see - the first paragraphs of my unfinished "how to train your dragon" fic got me J.K.Rowling, while a later dialog got me Ian Fleming.

The first paragraphs of Cloud Summon got Vladimir Nabokov, and the climax I still can't seem to get to got me Stephen King.

The beginning of Seven impossible things also got me Ian Fleming. The first sex scene gave me... Stephen King?

LOL. I have no idea how it's doing this. There's a suggestion here in the comments that it has to do with word choice more than actual style, and I think that makes sense. I'd take it to mean your vocabulary when writing sex isn't purple prose. And that's a good thing!
