As I noted in my posting at the other blog, my blog got plagiarized. The thieving site, is the ironically named Write (Create) Your Own Ebook (write-your-own-e-book.info/blog/judging-an-ebook-publisher-by-the-covers). I’m not including a clickable linky, because they don’t deserve the linkage.
The site is selling a book on how to write a book without actually doing any of your own writing. They [site owners] demonstrate this with their blog, which steals other people’s blog postings, without giving clear, attribution to the author. (Burying a link at the end, is not clear attribution.) The blog allows no comments; there is no contact information included; and their Whois information is hidden.
Some say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but, me I’d prefer cold, hard cash, or at least correct attribution–My name (P. Kirby or Patricia Kirby) on the article–of my work.
Blog plagiarism is theft.
