Hi, I’m Julia Morris.

Writer friends, I discovered a fun website today. It’s called “I Write Like” and here’s the description: Check which famous writer you write like with this statistical analysis tool, which analyzes your word choice and writing style and compares them with those of the famous writers.  Let me know which author you got! 

I was asked to post a favorite apid today and I can’t just choose one so have a Pretty Bee Appreciation Post!
