Now I've started, I just can't stop...

When I input the text of Stormslayer into the I Write Like site I got the following astounding result...

I write like
William Shakespeare

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

... as did Howl of the Werewolf.

The novella Conqueror Worm gave me this...

I write like
Charles Dickens

While The Horror of Howling Hill produced this...

I write like
H. P. Lovecraft

Tomorrow night is the launch of 33 which features my short story I Love Richmond. It's something a little different to the usual stuff I write, and the 'I Write Like'-bot seemed to think so too...

I write like
H. G. Wells

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

Now, how to fit all this into a usable tag-line for the back of my next book:

'Jonathan Green - writes like the bastard love-child of James Joyce, William Shakespeare, Charles Dickens and H. P. Lovecraft!'

Hmm... needs some work...

33 - something a little different

July sees the publication of 33, a collection of short stories that pushes the genre into new territory, or at least into the 33 borough of East and West London. And one of the short stories you'll find within its pages is I Love Richmond, by yours truly.


This was something of a departure for me, as it's not the type of subject matter I normally write about. It's contemporary, it's a love story, it's told entirely through dialogue, and it's... Well, to say anymore would give away the twist.

33 is published in July and is available from Glasshouse Books.
