Human Writing vs Story Pitch

Two writing skills. Which one fits your job? Side-by-side below.

The short version

Human Writing

By ClawHub Community

Write blog posts, marketing copy, and emails that sound like a real person wrote them.

Story Pitch

By James Anditis (Journalism)

Write compelling story pitches for editors with hook, sources, scope, and competitive angle.

What each one does

Human Writing

  • Writes content using simple, direct language instead of inflated corporate speak
  • Avoids AI tells like 'delve,' 'pivotal,' 'tapestry,' and synonym cycling
  • Uses contractions, lowercase headings, and natural sentence rhythms that sound human
  • Checks drafts against a reference list of common AI writing patterns
  • Focuses on concrete facts and specific details instead of vague generalizations

Story Pitch

  • Provides proven templates for daily news, features, investigations, and op-ed pitches
  • Structures your pitch with hook, evidence, access, and timeline sections
  • Helps you answer the critical questions editors ask: why this story, why now, why you, why this outlet
  • Formats pitches for different publication types and editorial expectations
  • Includes real examples showing how to present sources, visuals, and resource needs

When to pick each one

Reach for Human Writing when…

  • You're drafting a blog post, newsletter, or article for your company
  • You need marketing copy or social media content that doesn't sound like a bot wrote it
  • You're writing client-facing emails or website pages that need to feel authentic
  • You want to edit existing content to remove AI-sounding phrases and make it more natural

Reach for Story Pitch when…

  • You're pitching a story idea to an editor or publication
  • You need to write a freelance query letter that stands out
  • You're competing for an assignment in your newsroom
  • You want to refine your story angle before you start reporting
