I discovered this fun website (www.iwl.me) short for "I write like." This site analyzes your writing (how closely I do not know) and then tells you whose writing style your own resembles.
Here is a run down of what happened when I posted blog posts from various staff members.
Emily Crowe writes like Jonathan Swift... quick witted, satirical, great hair... okay I see the connection!
Both Emily Russo-Murtaugh and Chrysler write like James Joyce. Hmmm... well great minds and all that.
Marika, according to a blog post it "analyzed" writes like Edgar Allan Poe.
There are younger writers that you can be matched up to but for some reason the Odyssey staff are all old, dead men writers. Rest assured, other than our desire to not have large birds flying around the store, we really have not much else in common.
Check it out and see for yourself who you might be matched up with!
Paz,

Nieves, I don't know how I missed this post for so long! I just went to that website and in addition to Nabokov, Poe, and Swift, it also told me that I write like James Fennimore Cooper. No two results were the same. I could lost a LOT of time testing out writing samples. I wonder what would happen if we submitted, say, a sample of Nabokov's writing. Do you think Nabokov writes like Nabokov?
