Author Fingerprints


According to a study published in the New Journal of Physics researchers are able to identify the authors of various works by the frequency that they use certain identifying or unique words.

When they used the Pulpwork Press authors for their testing purposes they found that 'crimson' was the identifying word in my stories, 'pancakes' was the identifying word for Joshua Reynolds, and Derrick Ferguson's unique word is actually a phrase which shows up in a surprising number of his books: "Yiyoo, The Mother of Sorrowful Gifts and Wy, the Paladin of Wrath"
