Could you recognize friends by their style of writing only?

1 Answer

Answer :

I would have to say yes. I spend a lot of time looking at words. I think I’ve gotten my favorite authors down to the point where if I read an exerpt I would be able to tell who. Everyone has a different writing style. I feel on computer it is the same as our handwriting in the way we word things and how we each individually come to a conclusion. I can tell my friend Alicia’s work from my friend Mary’s (regardless of the topic of discussion). I will find old stories of mine that I wrote back in high school or something and I always recognize the word even if I dont recall the plot. Very interesting question, props!
