I learned today that "An amateur porn star" adapted my short story "Patent Pending" into an adult video!
The story concerns a scientist/inventor who shrinks the wife of his boss to get a better contract and the lion's share of the shrinking device he has created. As near as I can tell it is an exact reiteration of my story other than in my story the victim/heroine was a brunette and the "porn star" is a blonde. I was informed today, by someone in the know that she DID in fact base her film on my work. It sure looks the same. So the redundantly titled "My Little Shrunk Slut" is a direct adaptation of "Patent Pending!"
I'm more amused than anything else. I probably can't sue for a "piece of the action" so to speak. She apparently spent four months making this thing and one of her people wanted to know if I planned to expand the story. (So, they, no doubt, could rip me off some more.
It is stuff like this that moved me to self-publish my stuff on Amazon so that I can maintain control of my copyright. I have over twenty "Shrink Fiction" books to my pen name.
Has anything like this ever happened to anyone else?
Maybe Hollywood really WILL call me one day
