A Nifty Toy (and a cheap ego booster)

https://iwl.me/

Slug line --- "Check which famous writer you write like (sic) with this statistical analysis tool, which analyzes your word choice and writing style and compares them with those of the famous writers." Sic .. Hell, the whole sentence needs to be recast.

It actually hands out "name badges". So far, "I write like Arthur Conan Doyle", "... David Foster Wallace", "... Cory Doctorow' and (*ahem*) Anne Rice

I don't take it too seriously. The site is built to sell books.

I'm not done with it. I plan to feed it excerpts from some of my favorites and see if it knows Rudyard Kipling from Henry Gregor Felsen.

But don't wait for me to update this thread. Go and have some big fun of your own.
