Amazon Plagiarism

[JPGmvny]

Lit is aware of this. An "author" named "Amara Boone" has posted parts of at least three Lesbian stories from three different authors on Amazon. There are a number of Gay Male stories there too, so she may have stolen them too.

Amazon has been contacted, but those who are the authors can object directly. The stories have been up since the middle of last year.

There's a sticky at the top of the page for notifications like this, so they're all in one thread.

But when a number of Lit authors have had their work plagiarized by a single "author"--I recognized three separate Lit authors, one who discovered it and two others to whom I've sent messages--doesn't a post like mine make sense? Who's going to go to that sticky periodically to see if someone has reported a new act of plagiarism that might include their work?

I for one look at the sticky whenever someone posts something new to it. It flags bold, which means there's a later post to a thread I posted on. That's why it's a sticky - it's an often repeated topic, whereas a new thread will just roll down the page and disappear.

I'm not arguing, just pointing out there's a sticky, which is for me a more logical place to put such information. You perhaps regard stickys differently, no big deal .

Thanks. I didn't know about the bolding. I'll post it there too.
