i had a point. one day, i had a point.


So there’s this ‘Who do you write like?’ meme going round. I thought I’d give it a try. Except.

I write like
James Joyce

I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!



Yyyyyeah. On the one hand, I’m pretty sure it’s a good thing, because Joyce prose is like custard. (I eat it. With a spoon.) On the other hand, James Joyce. Pretty damn big role model to follow here. Also, pretentious much?

Also, my icon has never been so accurate. Literally.

I’m slightly bitter today. I’m not quite sure why.

I don't even know who James Joyce is? :D

Also Sara-kins, how can you be bitter? You must attack life with a glittering, smiling fervour every minute of the day!

... boo! He wrote the Portrait Of A Lady, amongst others — gorgeous prose, but utterly depressing.

That's you. I'm entitled to a few gloomy days out of the year!

Sounds like you~ It depresses me because I have to actually think to read your writing. :D

Nope.

God, I'm a dork. Henry James wrote The Portrait Of A Lady. James Joyce wrote Ulysses. And the Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. /headdeskheaddeskheaddesk

... not that kind of depressing. 8)

AND I WOULD HAVE NEVER KNOWN IF YOU HADN'T TOLD ME. Kudos to you.

It is Deeply Depressing with Capital D's. Do Not Belittle This.
