@cameo-d That's what I said. But they insisted on paying me to write one anyway. So I was happy to oblige.

I write like
Kurt Vonneguthttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_Vonnegut
With his columns for In These Times, he began a blistering attack on the Bush administration and the Iraq war. "By saying that our leaders are power-drunk chimpanzees, am I in danger of wrecking the morale of our soldiers fighting and dying in the Middle East?" he wrote. "Their morale, like so many bodies, is already shot to pieces. They are being treated, as I never was, like toys a rich kid got for Christmas." In These Times quoted him as saying "The only difference between Hitler and Bush is that Hitler was elected." [32] [33] In a 2003 interview Vonnegut said, "I myself feel that our country, for whose Constitution I fought in a just war, might as well have been invaded by Martians and body snatchers. Sometimes I wish it had been. What has happened, though, is that it has been taken over by means of the sleaziest, low-comedy, Keystone Cops-style coup d’etat imaginable. And those now in charge of the federal government are upper-crust C-students who know no history or geography, plus not-so-closeted white supremacists, aka 'Christians,' and plus, most frighteningly, psychopathic personalities,or 'PPs.'"

I put in two pieces and the first one came back David Foster Wallace and the second came back James Joyce.
Wonder why it didn't come back as a woman author?

I didnt take your test but I'm pretty sure I write like Earnest Hemmingway or Jack Kerouac.
Both men wrote like they had a tape recorder with them and transcribed the events and dialogue
they witnessed onto paper.
I know they didnt have taperecorders. But thats how I describe how they wrote.
They didnt make a lot of things up they just wrote about what they did and what they saw and what they heard.
Hemmingway would go to a bullfight or catch a fish and write about it, same with Kerouac he'd hitchhike across
the US and write about it.
I write stuff all the time, I keep a journal. I write a page a night. I work in a jail. I just sit there and write what I hear
and see. Someday I'd like to edit it together.
I hear selling books has become like selling music. Its hard to do, especially today with the internet and everybody
bloging and giving there music away.
