I have been plagiarised. Whoo! [/sarcasm]

My story Silence, which was written for SG-1, has been reposted with the names changed as a Torchwood story, Isolation, by wickedplotbunny.

Here is my line by line comparison of the first three or four paragraphs. I didn't have the energy to do more.

Unfortunately, I don't have the original date that my story was ( Read more... )

A 'wickedplotbunny' apparently posts over at the Torchwood Everything Changes forum as well, if someone has the time to browse through their fan fiction boards to see if there's anything there.

I can't get the link to work. Could you repost it? Thank you.

Found it for ya. I guess it pays to be a Dr. Who/Torchwood fan as well. LOL!

The site is called Torchwood's Secret

Also, here's a direct link to her Profile and her Intro Post. However, I can't tell if she's posted any fics there yet. So, if anyone has the time? :)

I'm busy checking other Dr. Who / Torchwood sites that I know about.

I Googled her email address, and found an account on Torchwood Fanfiction that matches the stats on her other accounts. The username is OdeToSpot. I'm not a member, but if anyone is they might to check out her work there.

I also checked FFN and found a Star Wars story under that, new username with the same email address.

It looks like that one is plagiarised as well, unless she also posted it two years ago to the Jedi Council Forums under the name 'DarkSaber'. Which seems unlikely.

Link tothe story on the Jedi Council Forums is here.

Greetings. I'm trying to tie things together, as well as figure out any contact information for Wickedplotbunny. If you don't mind me asking, what email address did you google and what was the source?

Thanks!

I actually have her on my MSN messenger, but she's not shown her face (so to speak) since she got caught.

i read a lot of her torchwod stuff, i think she even friended me
i never would have known it was plagiarized since i don't really read any of those other fandoms
i'm kind of shocked that she got away with it for so long

You and me both. I'm sorry for the people who have had their stuff plagiarised, I had no idea. I now feel hellishly guilty for giving her encouragement.

I wouldn't feel guilty. The only person who bears any responsibility for this is wickedplotbunny.

What a nightmare. Perhaps it's because I hail from academia...but I find this entirely revolting.

I corresponded with this author on a regular basis. I'm shocked and horrified to know she sank to these lows.

I think you've made an incredibly clear case. You are obviously the wronged party, and I hope you never have to go through this again. It's every author's fear.

Thank you. However, it's now clear I'm not the only person she's done this to - pretty much every story she's 'written' in the fandom has come from somewhere else.
