    Vladimir Nabokov is a russian author. He wrote Lolita, The Real Life of Sebastian Knight, & A Russian Beauty and Other Stories along with others. Some were novels (first off in russian, then later he wrote in english as well), short stories, Poetry & even some plays).

    I love russian literature. I love the way the russians write. I adore Fyodor Dostoyevsky & Anton Chekov the most but also very much enjoy Leo Tolstoy & Vladimir Nabokov as well.

    Hmm, it said I write like Dan Brown.

    Posted a different chunk of text, and it said I write like James Joyce!

    I tried with an e-mail I had sent some time ago, it said I write like Cory Doctorow.

    I don't know him, but I just checked:
    Cory Doctorow (pronounced /ˈkɒri ˈdɒktəroʊ/; born July 17, 1971) is a Canadian blogger, journalist, and science fiction author who serves as co-editor of the blog Boing Boing. He is an activist in favour of liberalising copyright laws and a proponent of the Creative Commons organisation, using some of their licences for his books. Some common themes of his work include digital rights management, file sharing, and post-scarcity economics.[1]

    I tried pasting in some of John's Fister stories, it said he wrote like
    David Foster Wallace.

    Me too. I've never read anything of his, so now I'm curious. I also put in another sample (a piece written for school) and it said Isaac Asimov.

    I write like Steven King. I've never read any of King's novels.

    I just tried a different bit of prose and it still said Steven King. I think I write succinctly. Is that how King writes?

    Apparently I write like James Fenimore Cooper. WHO???

    It's OK, there is no need to answer that, but having read his Wikipedia entry, I was officially insulted, so I tried again with another passage. James Joyce this time. Oh please.

    Third time lucky? I pasted in an old cat post and this time Edgar Allan Poe popped up. It might seem that I don't have my own voice, but to be honest, I doubt the scientific credentials of this site you have found, Barbara.
