How To Write Like Stephenie Meyer

The website “I Write Like” analyzes a block of text and tells you which famous author the writing is reminiscent of. Depending on what article I put in, my writing style is either similar to Jane Austen (um, boring?) or Stephen King (supermarket trash?). Writing like Stephenie Meyer, the woman behind the hugely popular Twilight series, is even easier. Clearly. [via BuzzFeed]

Cool! Based on my blog and the "I Write Like" website, I write like Dan Brown. A bit commercial, but very profitable! Apparently I should be working on a novel instead of blogging. Looks like I also write like David Foster Wallace, depending on the type of entry.

1. It's called "classic," not "boring." Wow.
2. Stephen King's horror and suspense stuff is for the most part campy nonsense. But his fantasy writing, like The Talisman and the Dark Tower books, are actually some of the best such fiction I've read.

Calling Stephen King "supermarket trash" is patently ridiculous.

I suppose The Dark Tower, The Green Mile, and Stand by Me (penned under Richard Bachman) were all trash.

I'm disappointed in this, King has a lot more going for him than the supermarket paperback crowd.

Sigh.

Apparently I write like Margaret Mitchell, author of Gone with the Wind.

I've never read anything she has written, I guess I will go check her out now.

I got everything from Margaret Mitchell, Ray Bradbury, David Foster Wallace, Cory Doctorow, Ian Fleming, William Shakespeare, Stephen King, to the shameful Dan Brown. At least he's made money?
Clearly I need to channel my writing. Although this was all from blog posts, not school papers or anything serious.

hmm... Edgar Allan Poe twice, Stephen King twice, and Kurt Vonnegut and Charles Dickens once each. Interesting lineup.

Did everyone else miss the best point of this article, that typing "derp derp derp derp" over and over is equivalent to Stephanie Meyer? Tee hee...

Or....maybe we all saw that, smiled, and then moved on to discussing way better authors...

I put in a little bit of my short fiction and... James Joyce?

Since I doubt they're saying I am a genius with an awesome eyepatch, and there's nothing nice left to say about James Joyce, I'm a little offended.

I knew Stephanie Meyer was just writing nonsense!

I had previously heard that to write like her, you just use every single adjective known to man.... twice.

After plugging in several of my own blog posts... I apparently write like Cory Doctorow (whom I know is a famous blogger... but I don't think I've read anything of his). I've also gotten James Fenimore Cooper a few times (whom I've never read anything of his... David Foster Wallace (don't even know who he is), Oscar WIlde and William Gibson I got once each. (Both of whom I have read.)

Interesting.

To go along with Princess Consuela:
If you copy paste an excerpt from The Dubliners, you get Robert Louis Stevenson. If you take text from Lolita, it does give you Vladimir Nabokov, but Farewell Summer by Ray Bradbury gives you Stephen King. Interesting....

Can someone put in something using the word "tremulous" at least 35% of the time? I really want to see what happens if you do, and I don't have the energy to type that word over and over again...(the word infuriates me and has done so for a few years now, so I get stressed out every time I hear/see/type/use it)
