Happened across this on another site, and thought it would be interesting to see what styles of authors we have here: http://www.quizilla....i...r are you?/

I'm not surprised to find that I'm a narrative writer.

"The righteous need not cower before the drumbeat of human progress. Though the song of yesterday fades into the challenge of tomorrow, God still watches and judges us. Evil lurks in the datalinks as it lurked in the streets of yesterday, but it was never the streets that were evil." - Sister Miriam Godwinson, Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri

The test pegs me as a "dialogue/character" writer.

Ahaha, Quizilla. That brings back memories. Not all of which are pleasant. Oh, might as well...

But God Almighty, have you seen what's happened since?
Master of the house? Isn't worth me spit!
`Comforter, philosopher' and lifelong sh*t!
Cunning little brain, regular Voltaire
Thinks he's quite a lover but there's not much there
What a cruel trick of nature landed me with such a louse
God knows how I've lasted living with this bastard in the house!

I'm kinda surprised. I always pegged myself as a character writer (Provided those characters are hot and gay :devil: )

Weird. It says I'm either St. Paul the Apostle or the Unabomber.

EDIT: What? God obviously didn't think that was amusing. Will some clever person please remove my duplicate posts or tell me how to do it. The site froze and I reclicked the send button... several times, apparently.

Or could it be that the Unabomber just started doing chain letters?

I did battle with monsters, and they became me, and when I gazed into the abyss, the abyss looked away shyly.

I like to be surprised and to surprise, but no mystery stories, sorry. All in all it is a very amateurish test.

But I agree that Vilki should try his luck with romantic encounters... Come one, we ALL want to see that, don't we? :>

They say the world is going to Hell.

They are wrong.

The world IS Hell! Always has been, always will be; except perhaps for the five percent or so of the population who can afford differently.

And, if one must reside in Hell, it is far better to do it as a minion of the Devil than as a member of the damned.

So that's why my triple-post won't go away.
