Still, there is some consistency in your writing, UT, as your comment is in the style of Kurt Vonnegut. Probably the mention of the cat.

I don't think I write like any of these people. I am not sure I believe in the protocol used in the analysis. In fact nothing is stated about how it is done. So, I conducted an experiment. I submitted random typing from the keyboard, as if say my cat was walking across it. Yep, David Foster Wallace was the answer...  and that's just not possible because I know for a fact that my cat writes like Haruki Murakami.   Having submitted my famous short story "Bird Watching" I write like (apparently): Kurt Vonnegut, David Foster Wallace, Dan Brown, Stephanie Mayer (haven't a clue) and James Fenimoore Cooper (ha!).

I posted a couple of my blog entries into the 'analyzer' program and came up with: 1. H. P. Lovecraft 2. Dan Brown So, I guess it is time to go back and try a few other posts to see who else I can be like :) It has been fun. Thanks for the link. Hey J…
