Plagiarized?

Dec 05, 2005 23:08

Aparently I've finally lost my plagiarism-cherry?
According to bloodshedbaby a fic of mine (still don't know which but it's probably touch of jealousy) has been plagiarized.
I'm not too angry, especially since I haven't seen the site where it's posted, I've asked bloodshedbaby for the link.
Anyway, if anyone knows anything about this, would you please let me know?

I posted it! I posted it! I swear!

Ok, maybe not with the original comment, but i added another it in another comment right after. *nods*

Here's the email that spuffynoelle sent me regarding it (and how I became involved)

I used to read Sweet Valley fanfiction a few years ago when I read the books (if you aren't familiar, it's a young adult paperback series). Anyway, I noticed a while back that one of the male characters, Jeremy, who has black hair and is completely straight-laced was being turned into Spike by one or two authors. Jeremy was now written as having the spikey gelled hair and sporting a new duster. I thought, at the time that the two authors (Spuffy and SV) were the same person, using different names on the different sites. I know, stupid of me to assume but I really didn't hear of people plagiarising before so I had naive thoughts ( ... )

I really don't get why people bother to steal fanfic. Are they really so uncreative that they can't write anything of their own?
