NOTICE TO EVERYBODY

A very nice person, ladydragon76 commented and told me that stories I had been writing had been stolen and posted on another website. I looked it up and found FOUR stories that I had written the last year posted there without my permission or knowledge

i saw a post about this one posting stories without author's permission fanfic-journal dot com

[lynzie914]

Yep, that would the one.

I'm just very frustrated at teh moment and hoping that no one else on my f-list is effected, or that they can at least know about it now if they are and put a stop to it. Because I never would have known if a very nice person hadn't told me.

(Also, I like your icon. ;D)

I posted about it for others saw some by babydee
right to me that is like stealing work and making it your own by changing a few words here or there
thanks I forgot who made it wish mine looked that good

[lynzie914]

That's great. As many people that know the better, and poor babydee.

Yeah, the whole thing is just ridiculous. Linking/reccing a fic is fine. Posting the whole story on another website, not even giving credit to the person despite keeping all their tags/comments, is a whole different thing and so very very wrong. I mean, really? What's the point of it? Also, they're not just taking stories, there re-posting posts that aren't fic too. Which is like double wrong, well its all wrong, I don't know its all wrong and kind of creepy. If it wasn't for nice people I wouldn't have even known about it. Hopefully spreading the word works.

I have a special love of Red!K Clark, that I probably shouldn't have. LOL. So I love how he looks in the icon. And I totally get that, some people just make really awesome icons. But the fun part is getting to use them. :D

I feel if you want someones fics it should be there choice to post none of mine where there
yeah gotta love Red-k Clark and Kal probably why I write him lol
