Here's an amusing little website: http://iwl.me/ (Yes, I'm procrastinating from finishing up my cover letter, doing the dishes, and making dinner.)

When I copied a bit of "Normal" in the box there, it told me I wrote like Arthur C. Clarke.

When I copied a bit of "Names" in there, it told me I wrote like Ian Fleming.

When I copied a bit of my single real bit of slash in there, "Together", it told me I wrote like J.K. Rowling. Now, *that* caused me to do a bit of a double take, because that piece? *Not* written in anything approaching Rowling's style at all. So I figured it must be reacting to certain bits of the vocabulary ("wizard, Dementor, lycanthropy...")

So I tried to find a part of the story without any of these key terms. Turns out the single sex scene is. So I entered that into the box - and still got J.K. Rowling.

For about five minutes I was mightily amused by the idea that I write gay werewolf sex like J.K. Rowling.

Then I took another look and, alas, there was still a "Padfoot" in there. Drat.

When I removed that, I wrote like David Foster Wallace.
