I almost got declined at Bright Hub because I turned in a writing sample that did not pass copyscape. Okay, that’s a pretty big deal. The Editor of the channel I was applying for asked me why it didn’t pass and I explained that it was because I ghostwrote it for a client. She was fine with this and accepted me into the channel as well as two others. So, happy ending, but for Bowie’s sake was I embarrassed!
