So, I found this new time waster called I write like (iwl.me is the address) . You put in text and it analyzes it to tell you who you write like. It uses 50 authors to choose from and it is based on style, word choice, whether you use dialogue or not. For fun, I put in a passage from chapter 1 of Veritas, the chapter I thought was the best. I got Cory Doctrow. I did not know who he was but, apparently he is a science fiction writer.
I also put in chapter 9 of HoF, my favorite chapter so far and got Charles Dickens. I messed around with LiLe's before and I think I got Edgar Allen Poe for one chapter.
Also when I put this in (something I made up) :
His eyes shined like red rubies. I looked deep into them as our lips locked in a deep passionate kiss. Much to my chagrin he took his pale hand in mine and pushed me away.
"We can't" he said
"Why not ?," I asked fiddling with my bracelet.
"There is so much you do not understand," he explained,"The pain I feel just being near you,"
I got Stephanie Meyer. I know, I'm terrible
Blogging
I know I've been slacking on my blogging but, I will pick up on it for the next entry
Chapter 10 & 11
Alright on to the next chapters. I use one song twice so, the number 5 comes up twice. Speaking of the playlist prepare yourself for some LiLe Throwbacks. I just realized how pretty purple and gray are together. Hmmm . . .
Chapter 10
Citizen Soldier by 3 Doors Down (Saint's theme song)
Chapter 11
-1- Lithium Instrumental
-2- How to Save A Life Instrumental
-3- Life After You Acoustic
-4- Gravity Acapella (you all knew Sara Barielles was coming eventually, I love her !)
-5-Blow Me Away (One of Sara's Theme songs)
-6- My Immortal
-5- Blow Me Away again,
Hm, I got Daniel Defoe from the website. How odd. I love your little excerpt, I thought it was from the actual book.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I love it when there is a lot of music ! ! ! I srsly think Minnie is a robot.
ReplyDeleteSomething about the end of section -4- just seemed . . . kind of wrong. I don't maybe it's me.
ReplyDeleteOh, Haliburton ! How liberal of you Shawna
ReplyDeleteSaint's story seemed really sad and mysterious, I do wonder how old he is.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing Arcadia isn't in like Canada as some sort of in-joke as to how nice Canadians are.
ReplyDeleteThe first part of chapter 11 gave me chills it was so wonderfully written.
ReplyDelete"Really ?," Sara shouted "Where were you a couple of days ago when--,"
ReplyDeletehmm, is she referring to him fighting those guys to save Minnie or is there something we are missing
Saimyn ! another fish reference
ReplyDeletearguably would Haliburton even still exsist since cars don't run on Gasoline anymore ?
ReplyDeleteEvery time I read this get bummed realizing I won't be alive in 2081 ):
ReplyDeleteSo, how exactly does Sara hack things without people noticing ?
ReplyDeleteDo any of the other Characters have theme songs? Caine's is soooo appropriate.
ReplyDeleteNo, I hope Minnie isn't a robot. . . not that there is anything wrong with that.
ReplyDeleteIt is kind of strange the way Alan called the people of Arcadia (arcadians ?) normal people, like he and that gang aren't normal.
ReplyDeleteThe Township Office looks likes a building from a college campus, so pretty.
ReplyDeletePurple and Gray ? Is that some sort of reference to Minnie and Alan >
ReplyDelete@ Maylights : OMG, and the Township leader's name is French-Canadian. FRIDGE LOGIC
ReplyDeleteIsn't it kind of trusting for Dimitrik to just give Alan all that information.
ReplyDeleteOh, who is the Lithium Instrumental by ? It sounds like Evanescence.
ReplyDeleteHis eyes shined like red rubies. I looked deep into them as our lips locked in a deep passionate kiss.
ReplyDeleteNo why does he have red eyes, LOL !
Is there a reason Alan doesn't recognize Jean's voice in his ear since he now knows what Saint sounds like.
ReplyDeleteThe color scheme on the playlist are really pretty ! Maybe those could be wedding colors . . .
ReplyDeleteArcadia seems like a really nice place. I just wish they hadn't left Minnie behind.
ReplyDeleteit's like we learned alot about Saint but still nothing at all, ya know.
ReplyDeleteSO MANY SONGS ! I love it.
ReplyDeleteOMG, Saint totes deserves his own mini-series, AMIRITE
ReplyDeleteCall me suspicious but I think the Arcadian are up to something.
ReplyDeleteLOL, when I put this passage from UL I got Smeyer
ReplyDeleteBut today, coming down the aisle she looked like not only the most perfect woman in the world but also the happiest. Her usually straight and stringy hair was framing her face in princess curls kept in place by the small flowered wreath on her veil, the lace gown poofed out every so lightly with each step, showing the tips of a pair strappy gold sandals, the bouquet in her hand was filled with the pinkest roses I had ever seen.. She stopped for half a second every few paces , her face absolutely glowing and when she got to my row where I was sitting with the Ericksons she offered a wave. When she passed Greg sitting at the front she smiled and waved under her bouquet. He responded with an even bigger smile and held up his camera to snap a picture.
As soon as she reached the
Wonder what you have to do to get Jane Austen
Whoa things just go super-odd at the Life Summit, technology can be so creepy sometimes.

ReplyDeleteLinda-- You and those 19th century British/Romantic writers.
Silver_phoenix - I really like music too. Ecspecially when you find one that matches perfectly.
Natalie-- It's not just you . . . I think
Holli-- Honestly I just needed a name and it was the first one that came to me. No symbolism there at all. . . I should have used the name of the weapons company from Iron Man to see if anyone caught on.
Constance-- Me too . . .
Maylights- There are quite a few in-jokes/references I will let you in on later.
Terri84-- Thank you, that make me feel great. It would have been great to start the serial with a paragraph like that.
LOTRmom-- she is referring to the fight. She thinks they need to be more cautious
Carleigh-- It's reference . . . but not to fish.
CranberriVodka-- Well, as I said Haliburton was just a name I pulled out but, for arguments sake they would exist *cue mini blog* : A company like AT&T has been around for almost of hundred years because it changes it service to fit in with the current times. AT&T isn't radio lines but, cell phones so, in short Haliburton could potentially exist.
NillaLatte-- Let's see it is 70 years from now so, I may not be but, maybe our kids will be ?
Maison- she's very good
CandyApple-- Um, Minnow has as well but thats it so far.
Mira-- No, there isn't.
sugarcookie-- He was comparing the Arcadians to people like the Dory's who are a little extravagent.
Trichelle-- So, close . . .
Ashlyn- *mind freak* I had no idea I was chaneling that. I guess those colors do match the characters . . .
Coraline-- There is Fridge Lodgic but, you all have missed it.
California_Blues-- Dimitrik is networking they are at a professional event and you would only know about it if you were invited so, he trusts Alan. Also, A&G is a big company and you would want to suck up to their employees so they get you in the door.
Aym-- It is Evenesence, it's just the instrumental. I was sure Lile had this song.
I'm going to break this into two so, I don't go over my character limit.
ReplyDeleteBiteme-- I read the descriptors for Smeyer's writing (lots of dailouge and comparing things to gemstones) and rubies where the first thing that popped in my head--It should have been Topaz, I know.
Sawlisa-- He recognizes the voice, he just thinks Jean is behind him. Hmm . . . that may not have been written the best way.
NurseTina-- Maybe we are between lots of colors now. Navy and Silver, Blue and Brown, Pink and White, Peach & Green, Red & Silver or even Gold.
Princess-- Me too.
MakeMeLALA-- I see that, which is why I put these two chapters together.
Tabby- I will remember to include more songs in future postingss !
JP-- I've considered it . . .
Redrose-- Intersting point . . .
Darcy_Lover-- I read that for 2 minutes trying to figure out where that was from before I realized I wrote that. I will have to put chapter 10 of UL (which is so different from the above) in to see what that gets.
LorrieC- Sometimes?
Your feedback is really helping me . . . and keeping me entertained.
