Plagiarism is bad, kids. Not to mention stupid when you do it online.

Heads up, Housefic writers: awwsugah has been reposting other people's stories on her MySpace and passing them off as her own. She's got stuff by daasgrrl, cryptictac, maineac, isagel, soundship, evila_elf, genagirl, jaryn_, elynittria, sam_storyteller, and others. (Not me, though. I guess my stuff isn't good enough. Heh.) See cryptictac's post for an in-progress roundup.

ETA: Example, now that the blog has been locked:

Thanks for the heads-up. And I wonder if it wasn't noticed sooner because anyone would go blind in a hurry reading in that layout? Still, jeeze. That's just astonishing.

Ha. Yes, not too easy on the eyes -- although the blog's locked now, so not everyone will get to enjoy the view for themselves.

I was surprised not to see any of your work on there (unless I didn't recognize it), or Mer's or Nightdog's.

It is astonishing -- one wonders why, when she became involved in LJ fandom, she didn't delete those plagiarized posts. Nobody would have been the wiser.

Ah, once again I'm proud to be uncool. ;)
