Just for fun, I did this I Write Like test by letting a sample of my writing be analyzed by a computer program. You can stop laughing anytime now! The ONLY difference between Ann Rice and me is about $60 million and a little thing called talent. Other than that, she and I are just alike. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.Addendum 5/1/18 2:41 pm CST:
I'm proud to announce that I copied and pasted a random excerpt from Anne Rice's Interview With A Vampire and had it analyzed. Anne should be proud to know she writes like Stephanie Meyer [sarcasm inserted] I'm sorry, but vampires DO NOT sparkle in the daylight! Insatiable, sultry Lestat De Lioncourt vs Bedazzled Edward Cullen, the vanilla vampire? Seriously? Lestat would literally have Edward for lunch!

Always accept a compliment and smile.
ReplyDeleteThank you and I'm always smiling.
ReplyDeleteI've read a few Anne Rice novels and they were pretty good so it's a compliment to be compared to her writing.
ReplyDeleteThank you and you must remember that sometimes Mildred and Red post absurd things as a joke. I hear both belong to the prestigious Pathological Liars Club. lol
DeleteI always think of Anne's writing and humid and florid at the same time. So, you talented little hothouse flower...kudos.
ReplyDeleteJust call this saucy tart, Wild Orchid. Eat your heart out Anne Rice! lol
DeleteNote to self: Next time you post something as a joke, make sure you tag it as a joke so no one takes it as being serious.
Be thankful that you were not tagged as writing like Stephanie. I shudder to think what you would have said/felt.
ReplyDeleteI probably would have blown a gasket and that wouldn't be a pretty sight.
DeleteIt's not that Stephanie Meyer is a bad writer. I think my problem with her Twilight series is that she lightened up the dark nature of vampires too much, but I guess with her audience being young adults, keeping it on the lighter side works out best. We definitely wouldn't want our youth running around doing nasty vampire stuff. lol
I want to write like Dr Seuss! One fish! Two fish! Red fish! Blue fish!
ReplyDeleteSweetcheeks, how long have we known each other? I took it for what it was. A game, diversion and a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteI believe you and I write like no other person.
I love most of Anne Rice's books, but her writing truly can suffocate me with the perfume of her words. Still, if I COULD write like her I would be a happy, rich man.
Never read Stephanie Meyer. Have no desire. I have read Janet Evanovich enough to know that I would like to slap her and her fucking main character: Stephanie Plum. Stupidest woman in fiction history. She deserves to die.
Oh, I like the name "Sweetcheeks"...let me see, since we're both blogging dinosaurs, that would make us knowing each other for day or two. I tend to forget that I don't have to explain myself to you...that you get my sarcasm and playful side. Thank you, BTW.
DeleteStephanie Meyer wrote the Twilight series (I've never read them) and I'll admit to watching the movies, but I was never a fan. I guess that kept me from ever feeling the urge to read her books. I did however enjoy True Blood speaking of vampire books put on the large and small screen.
Oh you have such a way with words! I'm sure Janet Evanovich would be so hurt by your assessment of her fucking main character. Hey, remember that being stupid is a hard job and someone has to do it. And some stupid people, like Janet Evanovich laugh all the way to the bank.
You write WAY WAY better than Anne Rice. I'm probably one of the only people who dislike her books. I wanted to like them...I tried. I did that writer analysis thing and I got 'Stephen King'.
ReplyDeleteWe all have our own likes and dislikes. It's not so much the similarities that people share that make things interesting. It's our differences. Those are the true measure of our character because we can either be learn to accept and to tolerate the differences or we can be complete assholes. I prefer tolerance (and a wee bit of asshole mixed in every now and then.) :)
DeleteWhile I liked the Twilight movies, I agree, Lestat would have had Edward for lunch. lol
