I Write Like...

I feel like this is somewhat familiar, so I'm sorry if this is repetitive, but I stumbled upon a website that claims to analyze your writing style.

So I went on and pasted a couple of paragraphs from some of my writing (and also a random list that I wrote).

I came back with three pieces that said I write like David Foster Wallace, one James Joyce, one Chuck Palahniuk and one Cory Doctorow.

It's somewhat flattering, though I take it with a grain of salt. It's pretty randomly generated and who knows how accurate. (Especially since the random list was supposedly reminiscent of David Foster Wallace, though I suppose footnotes and lists are somewhat similar.)
