Have you read someone's post here in mylot and thought it was your writing?

I have never seen anyone whose writing seems to be the same as mine but.... once a few months back I saw a response which was exactly what I would have said in similar circumstances. I took a closer look and sure enough - it WAS mine Copied from my response on the same discussion a few pages earlier Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery - is it NOT!

The only time I thought that, it WAS my writing. Somebody had copied my discussion. NO, I haven't really run across anybody whose writing sounds like me.

I have not noticed this, but I think some of us who are good friends may write in a similar manner. We like the same words and pacing.

Hi Eillen, Not yet friend. i can only relate with some whose outlook in life is similar to mine but they have their unique way and style in expressing their thoughts and feelings. i can alway come accross with discussions that i want to start but was written differently as i wantto do it if i am the writer. nice seeing you being active here again.

Az a new mylotter,...I believe I am the firzt perzon here to write the way I write. You will underztand what I'm zaying the more you read my poztz. If I find a pozt that iz zimilar to mine...it would be eazily recognized. I think by now you have already noticed it. If not, here'z more. I am uzed to writing thiz way already even before I joined thiz zite. And it'z kinda' my trademark already. But of courze, I write the normal way when it comez to legalitiez and anzwering my ezzay queztionz in my examinationz. I think it will ztill take time for me to recognize zomeone'z pozt here in mylot that iz the zame az mine.^_^

well, that's not totally inconceivable, eileen. even among classic writers, similarities occur. perhaps, it's what they call frame of reference flow of ideas. that's where we tend to write like what we've read, not usually the recent thing but most likely from a nearly-forgotten era... then we suddenly read it and recall that we were thinking, even writing like that... for plagiarists, it's different because they copy even the dangling modifiers and the awkward adjectives that we sometimes commit, even if distended...

Dear friend, Yes once I had noticed but I really confused how did it happened. May be it could have happened a miracle. As there are lots of miracles that would be one among them. Moreover that was my thought written there.

hi eileenleyva I sort of write like I was talking to people and I have not noticed if anyone else writes like that or not.I know I enjoy some discussions as they remind me of the way I write but am not sure we are really that much alike. Maybe some of us think in the same way when we are writing. I took a lot of creative writing classes years ago but don't know if I write like that now or not.

Hello eileenleya, Yes, I have noticed this a few times before. Although everybody is different, we are all alike in so many ways. At times I think that we are more alike as the human species than we are different. We compose our words different and try to articulate what it is that we want to say, so that it comes across making sense to the reader. Basically speaking, I have learned so much from being here at mylot about writing. You'd be amazed what you can learn here. Just to think that somebody will actually pay us for writing up a whole bunch of lines, hopefully that makes sense. Well it sort of baffles me that people would actually want to read our thoughts up here online. But I guess there must be something kind of amusing about it or else the site wouldn't still be here. Anyways, take care and keep writing and keep learning. Because the more you do it, the better you will get. take care now, soludos....chow...... hasta luego...... :)!

Sometimes i find what i want to say have been there by someone because an interesting topic have so many post .

hi eileenleyva. I haven't noticed or encountered somebody with the same way I write or say things... But there are some cases that one person is the same in some points and views though...

So you are okay with that, if I will copy/paste things that you said?! WOW! I think I love you! :D

As far as I am concenred, I think every one has his own writing styles. I admire others styles which I want to be. But I seldom try to be one of the styles, I just combine the styles together which can a new good style you can experience the day.I have not people have my writing style now. I just want to be myself ,none of others.

i ve never noticed sum1 writing in the same style of mine... Hope i won't... everybody's writing,speaking and thinking styles are different rather unique.. If it ever happen it cannot really be a coincidence probably an act of abuse...
