Above all, let who you are, what you are, what you believe, shine through every sentence you write, every piece you finish.” ~ John Jakes
Writers, have you taken the test? It is called I Write Like.
It goes like this – you enter a short chapter of your unfinished book, several paragraphs of your blog writing, an entry from your journal, a comment you wrote in response to a blog or perhaps, a short letter to an editor. In other words, submit a sample of your writing to http://iwl.me.
What happens next? Within a matter of moments, your writing is analyzed in terms of your writing style and your word choice.
How do you get the result? You receive an on-line ‘badge” which indicates which famous author your writing compares with.
My result? My writing compares with the writing of Stephenie Meyer, the author of the Twilight Series! Yeah, right!
Personally, I think it is only a test to see how many foolish people, like me take it! That’s all!
What do you think of this test?
Is it a gimmick that leads to false hope for writers?
Does it encourage writers to press on and to continue to hone their craft?
Can statistical analysis based on a sample writing of a few paragraphs be a valid way to assess talent and ability?
Can this writing test really forecast whether or not you have a chance at becoming an accomplished writer like the author your writing has been compared to?
We would like to hear from you!
