Are you looking for a new author to read?
« on: June 24, 2011, 06:14:52 am »
Hello,

If any of you are reading fanatics as I am, here is a cool website that will introduce new authors similar to those you like.

Type in an author's name and writers with a similar style appear. The closer they are to the name typed in the more similar they are in style.

I've been able to read stuff by writers I hadn't heard of. Very good!

Cool site.  But my favorite author (Bryce Courtenay) seems to be most similar to Danielle Steele.  That just can't be right!

Thanks for the site. It's pretty cool and I can tell already that some of the unknown writers are gonna be stacked if they are sitting that close to my favorites.

This is amazing!  What I've seen so far with my own favorite authors has been spot-on with comparisons to other authors I already know of.
