I’m 24% Oscar Wilde. (Sans walking stick, contemplative angst and pimp cuffs.)

Aw yeah, look at me having literary rootage. I was shooting for Tolstoy, but Oscar works. Ofaust.com tells you what famous writer your words resemble most closely. Just paste one or two paragraphs of anything you’ve written and see where you stand relative to those ‘other’ writers.

47% Nietzsche - That's a surprise.

That's very deep. I thought MAYBE I’d have a little SPillane thrown in there for good measure, but alas, it was not to be.

I'm Edgar Allen Poe when I'm writing for the newspaper. I was hoping for H.L. Mencken. Same city at least.

I get Mark Twain for my ad blog posey, though. I like that.
