... Isaac Asimov. How do I know this? Because I've just been dabbling on the new 'I Write Like' website that has been taking the internet by storm.
If you visit I Write Like you can find out which famous writer your writing most closely resembles. All you need to do is copy and paste a few paragraphs of your writing, hit the 'analyse' button, and hey presto! The site does some complicated statistical comparison against a database of famous writers (the site developers know about this sort of stuff) and comes up with a name.
Not entirely happy with Asimov, I tried again with some different prose and ended up with William Gibson.
So successful has 'I Write Like' been that the site has even got its own spoof. It's called I Actually Write Like and offers to tell you "who or what writer, animal or household object you most write like".
Ok, so here the answer is somewhat less flattering. It came up with "I actually write like... a drunk working through issues"!
Well, it is Monday.
Go on, have a go. I'd really like to know who you (actually) write like. Let me know in the comments below.
Best wishes,
Claire Fogg (Publisher)

Using the first link so far I've had, Vladimir Nabokov, James Joyce, J K Rowling and Cory Doctorow all in the same novel. With the other link it said, 'a moonstruck lunatic possibly actually wearing a straightjacket,' which is probably much more accurate.
