PRESENTED BY VERIFY MY WRITING
You’re Better Than a Bot
Your writing is better than AI.
But to compete, you have to be seen – editors and agents need to know you’re human and not a robot. They need to see you to read you.
A human-written certification from Verify My Writing can get their attention and help you stand out in sea of slop. Scan your work, certify it, attach it, then submit.
You are currently a free subscriber and will only receive a preview of our opportunities lists in each issue. TWJN Pro subscribers get complete access to newsletters along with exclusive access to our Pitch Call Database.
