Officially an Author!

I received an email from a very nice author who told me that a few of my stories have been posted on another website. I feel so special that I am finally a real author - someone has ripped off my stories

Erin

Congrats on the first time!!

*throws confetti*

I know what this feels like - a German members-only site used my German anal sex how-to.

Did you take action?

Assuming that you don't want your stories ripped off, PM Laurel and let her know. She'll take care of things.

I'm ripped off all over the world.

I think there are two reasons:

1. They get a lot of words when they rip off my longer stories, and

2. Searching for "oggbashan" is easier for me than some other people's nom-de-plumes.

Cool. Congratulations.

Now that is weird. Ogg's comment had me googling my name and I seem to have a long list of stories on AskJolene. Lots of them are from here but don't reference or link to Literotica.

But five of the stories are ones I've never seen before.

Should I be angry that someone stole my name? Or just mad that I'm being lumped in with someone I have no connection with except the name?

Are there still Lit. stories on AskJolene? Haven't we had a couple of rounds of "just tell Laurel about this and they'll be taken of"? And they are still there? If so, that sort of supports my contention that you just aren't going to be able to control the dispersion of anything you post to the open Internet--so to assume that when you are deciding what to post to the open Internet.

I was alerted on a Lit thread that one of my stories had been appropriated by a rogue porn site. They used about 1/2 of it and interspersed random anatomical and sex act slang terms throughout the text. WTF?

I think it was a foreign site, possibly originating in the Pacific Rim, since they often use English words without knowing the contextual meaning.

I told Laurel, and e-mailed them a protest...surprise, no response.

What we need is a really good, really vicious hacker to invade these kleptosites and scramble them into oblivion. Anyone got a nephew or niece that meets the description? How about a grandkid?

If any of my stories have ever been stolen I am unaware of it.

If any of my stories have ever been stolen I am unaware of it.

They stole one of mine, but they brought it back.

Congratulations, PE! You've made the cut!

...boy, what a wonderful world we live in, when the real indication of our success is whether we've been plagiarized or not... =/
