Dan Brown! Oh the shame!
I knew my writing was bad, but not that bad, surely? 
Maybe I can cash in and make billions. Ka-ching!
Okay, tried something else and got Ursula K. Le Guin. Not bad. I'm in floods of relief.
Third: Edgar Allan Poe.
This is hilarious!

It seems that when I'm writing from my innermost being, I write like Chuck Palahniuk. But when I'm not taking myself or anyone else seriously, apparently I write like Stephenie Meyer. Further proof that that woman didn't have a clue what she was doing.  *snickers* |

Margaret Mitchell - most linear narrative writing
William Gibson - sort of cohesive writing
Jack London - more disjointed writing |

J. R. R. Tolkien
Now, if only I could actually write like J. R. R. Tolkien.

Prologue of my barely-started memoir: David Foster Wallace
A random journal entry: Lovecraft (didn't realize my life was that horrific, lol)
I'm wondering what writers they have entered into their system? Or, in other words, I wonder which writers I may resemble more than these two, but who were not options through the site. |

| I submitted part of a chapter for a story I started the other day and got Kurt Vonnegut. I was aiming for Lemony Snicket or Lewis Carroll, but I guess anything is better than Stephanie Meyer. |

Same here.
Never heard of Cory Doctorow.
On the second try, apparently I write like, of all people, Anne Rice.

Apparently, I also write like him. I have no problem with that.
