I should be revising my novel. The ABNA contest opens in less than a week. I did tweak my Pitch a bit, and will be editing as soon as this entry is posted.
Discussion threads can be so distracting! Just now, a post led me to Gender Genie which uses an algorithm to analyze a text and guesses the sex of the author. I pasted the first “Cycle” of my novel. Here are the results:
Words: 18431
(NOTE: The genie works best on texts of more than 500 words.)
Female Score: 21692
Male Score: 21345
The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: female!
Apparently, by a narrow margin, I write like a girl…
