Okay, this is kind of odd coming from me. Probably ridiculous once you first look at it. But mainly weird about the fact that I'm highly unpopular and don't get so much acknowledgement like a lot of people, but...
This is REALLY just extremely beyond... weird. I have only one offline friend that I share my ADJL fan fics with. And a while ago, she tells me that she was randomly on google or something then she comes across a freewebs page that has a story with the same words as mine. Slight coincidence? Well, it won't be just slight. IF YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT HOW IT'S THE SAME EXACT STORY!?!?!?!?!
Fck! :/
This is a bit bizarre if you ask me, and I know that I've been saying this more than once. The link to where my story was stolen is here.
It was badly renamed, directly copied off FFnet, showed proof that it was due to some of the funny symbols showing up, and plus, it was dated to a year ago; a month after I made an attempt to rewrite the fic.
I dunno. But this really is a new thing for me, especially since this was my very first fan fic from, like, a long time ago; "Still Friends?" if any of my readers recognize it. But... I DON'T KNOW. D: It feels weird to have someone steal something for you- well, virtually, in a way. Point is, though, I don't know what to do! It said it's been since May 2006 that the "story was last updated," unless the person knows otherwise. Maybe the guy decided not to post the other chapters of SF. But hmmm... I wouldn't be too sure to try and "sue" or something. But I immediately sent him an email and tried to ask him (since he provided it on the bottom). He might be lik trying to steal some other dude's work by now. I can't know for sure.
But, no really. it feels STRANGE to have something stolen from you that isn't related to your personality and who you are. It really hurts too. Even if I was a sucky writer back then. x_x
Anywayums, any ideas on what to do? D:
