I just tried the readability score and who you write like.
ETA: My amazon challenge reads like Jane Austen and my Wonder Child like Neil Gaiman.
I just took it as well. It seems that with my Lockwood story I write like Stephen King. Freedom and Treason was like Douglas Adams (Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy)
Oooo! I scored a 93.2 in readability with my latest Wren's Nest chapter. One of my first ever posts from Ana Pringle scored 75. I guess that means I've improved my writing.

My #BuildNewscrestChallenge reads like James Joyce. Proof: http://iwl.me/s/d760c1b4 but My new story coming out which will be called "True Love" reads as like P. G. Wodehouse.
I'm hoping one day my writing style will be more consistent, until then, I'm enjoying seeing who I write like heh. It's interesting the options you guys got so far.
My Derelict Room Challenge reads like Neil Gaiman.
The last short story entry The Last Breath read like Stephanie Meyer...errr. I was hoping for Terry Pratchett.
Bane, my heir from my Legacy Challenge, reads like H.P Lovecraft....mwahahahah (must be the cowplant)
And finally own voice (when I'm the narrator) reads like Douglas Adams.
I kind of wish I knew how they were analyzing this text...it feels like it might be random. Although I'm sensing a SF/F theme. Considering how much of that I've read, I'm not surprised that my writing sounds like SF/F.
Check out Raerei's Fortress for Builds, Short Stories, and maybe some longer stuff.

Word choice and sentence composition I assume. It probably has a database consisting of most used words for the authors, and favorite phrases, etc. Would be the most practical assessment measurement.
My characters and venue are DONE! after several hours. A lot because I didn't feel like making my own sims so I just choose them from the gallery. That's takes time when you are looking for a particular look, but as I said.. im too lazy to make my own sims. lol. Next is so take screenshots... tomorrow. Psh... I'm working on my legacy now.
I'm talking to a friend about a choir she just joined and they're singing a song by a composer named Craig Hella Johnson and that middle name cracks me up. Makes me think of @sunnyshay's legacy, lol!
I apparently write like James Joyce and Robert Louis Stevenson. =/ Not sure how I feel about that lol.
You write like the turn of the last century Irishman or Scotsman? I'd say that was a complement. (Had to look up Stevenson, not a name that I know, but I know his writing). Shows how well I know my classics...as in, um, not at all.

Well its funny...I know Stevenson because of school. But I have no clue who Joyce is. I was hoping to write like Carroll - whimsical and such. Lol.
When I write for myself (in my commentary on Goofy Love), I write like J. K. Rowling.
When I write for onezero, I write like William Gibson.
In Aimless, I write like Chuck Palahniuk.
In Dr. Jasmine's Casebook, I write like Kurt Vonnegut.
In Drifter, I write like Cory Doctorow.
In A Houseful of Hippies, I write like Margaret Mitchell
In Where I'm From, I write like Douglas Adams.
In FanFic, I write like Charles Dickens (when Nancy Landgraab and Clarissa Moon are the POV characters) and Dan Brown (when Malcolm Landgraab is the POV character)
No wonder I feel like a veritable library sometimes!
I got David Foster Wallace for Project L.E.G.A.C.Y. - the titles of some of his books are Brief Interviews With Hideous Men, Consider The Lobster And Other Essays, and This is Water: Some Thoughts, Delivered on a Significant Occasion, About Living a Compassionate Life.

@CathyTea ohmyplum I'm so jealous...JK Rowling no wonder I love Goofy Love so freaking much.
I know! I'm stoked! And that's in my own voice! I'm mostly jealous of sounding like Charles Dickens, though! Wait... why am I jealous? I DO write like him! LOL!
(I'm not surprised, for last year, I read EVERYTHING he wrote. And I mean everything. Even the little essays about America--which were the best!)

You could write like anyone if you wanted tbh. You're that gifted.
I do wonder if Lewis Carroll is an option on that site though...writing like him is my goal for my new story. I'm gonna re-read Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, since those are the only things of his I have readily available, so I can try to mimic the style (I'm good at mimicking lol)

Oh, so cool! Maybe long made up words! LOL! I wonder what Lewis Carroll's sentence structure is like... it reminds me of Bach preludes, very mathematical. My dad, who was a mathematician, adored Lewis Carroll and used to read him aloud to me. My dad wasn't terribly verbal (very quiet man), but Lewis Carroll's sentence structure fit his mouth so well! His prose sounded natural coming from my dad!
I was hoping to write like Jane Austen! I mean, I've read all of her work at least seven times each! But that was a few years ago. I'm glad I didn't write like Shakespeare! I'm reading him now. I think I don't have a dirty enough mind to write like Shakespeare! LOL!

Also last call for anyone who wants to submit a comment for the latest blog post of This is NOT me!
As usual I will write it up first thing in the morning.

Do you also play The Elder Scrolls Online? You can find me there as CathyTea, too!
Yeah, I can see the similarities.
Ironbound writes like Dan Brown, (I used Chapter 28 as the test)
My Life As A Zombie writes like Cory Doctorow... Yup, I can see why!
Hey! I got those three, too! LOL! We write the same in our multiple voices!
