EDIT!
So it seems that the author, removed and abandoned her account, but in a rather unapologetic and tantrum-like way. She swore never to write again because she couldn't understand why people were upset that she used my idea. So basically, I don't even know if I can call this a victory on my part because she didn't learn her lesson nor understood the seriousness and repercussions of Plagiarism. Oh well.

Thanks everyone for your support!

Haaa this is funny.

It was brought to my attention that some author on fictionpress blatantly stole my original short comic story  "WiLLOW" as her own.

Here is MY comic (first published 2008):  [link]

And here is THEIR story (published 2011): [link]

Note that the first two chapters are almost exactly word for word script-wise. The only difference is that they changed the character names. After this, the author goes on to make her own story and abuse my characters, but HELLO?!

That still doesn't make it okay. I find it flattering, but mostly hilarious. I also don't care if she decides to credit me WAY WAY LATER. She didn't ask me permission IN THE FIRST PLACE which still makes it plagiarism.

I already put in a report, so there's no need for you to go on my behalf. HOWEVER  I don't know if there are any other stories that this author stole from to incorporate into her own "fiction" so if you spot something that you recognize from other people, don't be afraid to make a report!

I also tried contacting the author directly, but unfortunately cannot do so without getting an account (which I don't want to do) and they didn't leave any email. So for now I have to rely on the admins.

TO MAKE A REPORT:
Simply scroll all the way down, and under the "Add Story to Favorites" tab, mark it as "Report for Abuse."

IF YOU MAKE A COMMENT/LEAVE A REVIEW: Please, no matter how justified you feel, be civil and polite in your comments. There's no use for hurtful bashing.
