    Well I know the site is bubkiss but...
    I could not resist, I did it any how.
    This is what I got :
    William Shakespeare

    Cool, if it were anywhere near true it would be even cooler!

    It told me what I already know. I write like me.

    Funny, Lawfire. Atlanta Nights got William Gibson. Unfortunately, I've never heard of the guy, so I don't know if that's funny or not.

    The Declaration of Independence got H.P. Lovecraft.

    Gibson is great. I'm surprised you haven't heard of him, even if you don't read that genre. Probably one of the most influential genre writers around today. Neuromancer, Count Zero, Mona Lisa Overdrive, and so on. Those titles don't ring a bell? A lot of underpinning for the move The Matrix in those.

    You, too, can get a copy of Lorelei and the Lost and Found Monster from Amazon.com.

    Sorry...but I agree with Telcontar, this site has some pretty lame software doing the 'appraisal'. That much seems obvious. Don't get too excited or disappointed by your results, they are virtually worthless.

    Based on one chapter of my NIP, I write like James Joyce. Now I have to go read some James Joyce and see if that sounds plausible

    Five tries with five different works:

    Neil Gaiman
    Dan Brown (x2)
    Anne Rice
    James Joyce

    Interesting selection, I must say.

    Relax, guys. It's just for fun. I very much doubt anyone believes Martin Luther King Jr. was channeling Edgar Allan Poe when he wrote his I Have a Dream speech.
