I did something similar many years ago. I fed about half a million words (two decades of mostly fantasy and science fiction writing) into a Markov model that could generate text using a “gram slider” ranging from 2-grams to 5-grams.
I used it as a kind of “dream well” whenever I wanted to draw some muse from the same deep spring. It felt like a spiritual successor to what I used to do as a kid: flipping to a random page in an old 1950s Funk & Wagnalls dictionary and using whatever I found there as a writing seed.
