My Writing Score: Beta

Get Your Writing Scored Against Popular Authors

 

Find out how your manuscript stacks up against popular authors, where your strengths and weaknesses are, and improve your chances of getting published!

My Writing Score: Calculated by AI, Verified by Trusted Human Editors!

Wouldn’t you like to get a score that tells you how well your writing stacks up against successful published authors (before you face rejection)? Now you can at Authorlink®! You might be asking yourself, ” How can I rate my book?” or “How can I write a good manuscript?” You may even want to know, “Can I rate my story with AI?”

AI is a powerful tool to assist humans – but we believe it should never replace our creativity. Authorlink is dedicated to the ethical use of AI, in which we use it to perform research and analysis in a fraction of the time that it would take a human – while still empowering us to exercise our brains creatively. My Writing Score provides helpful insights into how a human can improve their story, without taking away the creative experience of the work itself.

My Writing Score analyzes your fiction or nonfiction manuscript against other writers, many you may know and admire.

We combine cutting-edge AI with the insights of experienced human editors to meticulously size up your writing style and show you how your work might compare with others already in the marketplace. We’ll delve into your style, theme, plot structure, and market appeal, comparing it directly to successful, published authors. This unique comparison helps you sharpen your focus and better target the right editors, agents, and audiences for your work. The report (up to four written pages) helps you review a manuscript, and points out any glaring weaknesses, too. You’ll even receive a marketability score on a scale of one to five, giving you a clear picture of where your story might fit. It’s quick, easy and private. For your eyes only. 

1-2 Stars: Major structural or conceptual problems.

3 Stars: A good concept but needs significant work on plot, character, or prose.

4 Stars: A very good manuscript with strong commercial potential that requires a round of professional polishing to be ready for publication.

5 Stars: Excellent. Ready or nearly ready for publication with minimal edits.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is My Writing Score?

My Writing Score is Authorlink’s manuscript evaluation service that compares your fiction or nonfiction manuscript to successful, published authors. It analyzes your style, theme, plot structure, and market appeal, then delivers a written report (up to four pages) along with a marketability score on a scale of one to five stars.

Is the report generated entirely by AI?

No. The full ($19.99) version is generated by AI and then confirmed by human editors to make sure the score accurately reflects your work. The free sample report is generated by AI only, without the human editorial review step.

How much does My Writing Score cost?

The full report is $19.99 and includes an AI-generated report confirmed by human editors, a comparison to published authors, a strengths and marketability report, areas to polish, and an overall writing quality score. A free version is also available, analyzing your first 1,250 words and including an AI-only comparison and marketability report.

What kind of manuscripts can be evaluated?

The service is best suited for fiction and nonfiction, published or unpublished, ranging from 75,000 to 400,000 words. Not all work is suitable for analysis; Authorlink cannot process pornographic or hateful (inciteful) content and reserves the right to decline an order, in which case a full refund is issued.

Is my manuscript data kept private and secure?

Yes. Authorlink treats submissions as private, for your eyes only, and confirms that the AI systems used do not use your submitted content for training purposes. Authorlink takes reasonable steps to keep your information secure, though as with any internet-based service, it cannot guarantee against breaches or disclosures beyond its control.

How does My Writing Score work?

You complete a signup form and upload your manuscript. Authorlink’s AI analyzes the submission against a large body of published work, and the resulting report is then reviewed by experienced human editors before it’s sent to you, so every score is calculated by AI and verified by trusted humans.

What does the marketability score mean?

Your manuscript receives a star rating from one to five: 1–2 stars indicates major structural or conceptual problems; 3 stars means a good concept that needs significant work on plot, character, or prose; 4 stars means a very good manuscript with strong commercial potential that needs a round of professional polishing; and 5 stars means the manuscript is excellent and ready or nearly ready for publication.

How long does it take to get my results?

The free sample report is emailed within 24–48 hours. The full version is emailed within 3–5 working days.

What should I do if my report reveals weaknesses?

Authorlink’s Killer Critique service offers a deeper, detailed critique with actionable suggestions to address the strengths and weaknesses identified in your Writing Score report.

How do I get started?

Submit your manuscript through the My Writing Score form to receive your free sample report, or order the full $19.99 report for a complete evaluation.
