I got a bit bored by my former contribution, so I decided to create something new. I like text generators which use existing text as input. The new repo is https://github.com/y-a-v-a/nanogenmo

The generator creates a table of all words with all their subsequent words from the text. Based on this table, a new text is generated.

Thanks for putting the label preview. I decided to add a 'book' based on Andy Warhol's The Philosophy of Andy Warhol (From A to B and Back Again). See the result in Plain Text here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/y-a-v-a/nanogenmo/master/text-1417124425371.txt

The book from itself already reads like a stream of thoughts, and now, processed by my generator, it sounds even more like so, even more like an irrational flow of consciousness.

Some breaks in the text - paragraphs or something would help.

Great choice for source-material as well.

Nice!

Thanks for the tip! And thanks. I might change the code a bit in the next couple of days. Do you happen to know: has dariusk already made a roundup somewhere online?

@y-a-v-a I don't think so, but @dariusk said he's planning to: https://github.com/dariusk/NaNoGenMo-2014/issues/151
