There are a few MSC's that I've been meaning to register with, but they make clear in their app that they want a really detailed and well written sample narrative. The samples I created before I began shopping are well written, but bland. Being able to use an actual narrative now that I have 50 shops under my belt would really show off my abilities.
As long as I tweak it so I don't disclose client, MSC, etc. does anyone see a problem with using one of my narratives from a recent shop? You know... change the names to protect the innocent....
My initial thought is that it should be fine, but being so new to MSing there may be something I'm missing here that someone with more experience can point out...
Thoughts?

I was signing up with a new company last week, and a note on the website really got my attention. It said any writing samples that had been "cut and paste" would result in that application being denied. I had never seen that before. Writing is so easy for me, I just normally tootle along with something consistent with the company I'm applying to, proof it, and hit submit.
A word to the wise -- just don't cut & paste!

What a load of crap.

Is that directed at me? Calling me a liar?

I was thinking about the peeps reading the narratives (if they are in fact read) and how boring it must be. I made up a narrative that is an imaginary visit to The Chocolate Factory...complete with Willy Wonka, Chocolate Mountain and the Oompa Loompas. I haven't had any comments and have been accepted by every MSC.....has anyone ever been rejected? I don't think they read them!!!

I've applied to some MSCs that said you can use a recent shop report just remove identifying client info.
