Using my latest movie review (Bug) and submitting the first 4 paragraphs not including the opening, I have discovered that I write like Stephen King.

Then I decided to add a fan fiction story I wrote a couple years back and it said that I write like Dan Brown.

Finally, I decided to add parts of latest original story I just finished as of today and it said I'm Stephen King.  Heh, interesting!  I certianly moved up.

Now I must go and write the next big horror story!

Note: Just for giggles, I submitted the text above and it said I was Cory Doctorow.  Who the heck is that?!

I write like 'Jack London'
never heard of him  :question:
I'm working on my second short story that's quite different. When I'm finished I'm seeing what it says then.

I will forgive you sense I know you're not from the U.S.  He's a classic American writer of adventure stories ("The Call of the Wild").  Students are often forced to read him in high school.

Ahh, thanks, I guess that's good then  :teddyr: And yes, we only have to read books from mainly Dutch writers in school. But all the books I voluntarily read in my spare time, I read in English and are from English/American authors. Mainly Stephen King and Elmore Leonard.

JACK LONDON is a great American writer of short stories and a few well-regarded novels like The Sea Wolf, that were innovative in their time and mostly about the Northwest, the Yukon, the struggle for survival. 

My analysis says: DAVID FOSTER WALLACE, H.P. LOVECRAFT, and VLADIMIR NABOKOV... writing selections taken from my online Amazon reviews:
