I am an “international” copywriter as they call us, and people at the agency are constantly changing my copy. Sometimes even without telling me. There always seems to be something “wrong” with it.

So, I and another American copywriter made an experiment the other day: I presented HIS copy and he presented MY copy. My stuff got so many corrections and his stuff didn’t get any.

Do any other international copywriters go through this bullshit?
