My entry (entries?) to National Novel Generation Month
Read the novel (dialogue replacement)
Read the novel (full replacement)
Pride and Prejudice with (almost) each word of the dialogue replaced with another word in the same hierarchical Twitter cluster, that is, with another word that is used in a similar context on Twitter as computed by the CMU TweetNLP project.
In the second link, both dialogue and prose are subject to the same treatment.
- Change the settings in
config.pyif you need to - Run
python twitterize.py filename.html
The Python script was hacked together so it probably won't work on your own text right out of the box.
With apologies to Jane Austen and thanks to Republic of Pemberley for the supply of their e-text, as well as CMU for TweetNLP.
And thanks also to Lynne Cherny (@arnicas) for telling me about NaNoGenMo and inspiring the idea.
