Hello folks.

For the second time in years as an author here on , I am writing to my readers about plagiarism. If you follow my story For the Only Hope, then you remember the time more than a year ago when I was dealing with another person who was stealing my work to claim as their own. I know that I fondly remember the outpouring of support, but I also remember how gutting it was.

Earlier today, I got this review:

Kissy Kissy chapter 1 . 5h ago

Oh my gosh! This is my favourite fanfic!

In fact, I uploaded it on Archive of Our Own website under my username so I can also get some nice reviews. Hope you don't mind! thanks you're a doll XXX

This is horribly upsetting for me.

First, I am not on Archive of Our Own, so I don't know whether or not this person has followed through with their threat, or what to do if they have.

Second, no, this person never asked my permission to post my stories on that site. That they are doing it by their own admission "so I can also get some nice reviews" is so wrong.

Third, they did this on anon. I have no idea who they are, or if "Kissy Kissy" is their user name on AO3.

Fourth, I realize this might be just someone trying to troll me, and that is even worse. it means that someone thought that the best way to hurt me would be to send this message. They saw someone who is very busy and still spends a lot of time writing fan fic and thought that it would be fun to fuck with me? No.

I am not a doll. I am a very angry author, and I need your help.

If you are the person who sent me this review, please do not upload Part of Forever on AO3. I do not want it there. If I decide to join, then I will post my stories under my own name. Come off of anon, so that we can work this out like adults over a private chat so I don't have to call you out in public like this, which I do not like to do.

If you are reader who is made upset by this, help me out. If you are on AO3 and you see this (or any of my other stories tbh) story on there, please contact me, and go through whatever steps you have to do to report it! From my internet sleuthing skills, as mediocre as they are, I haven't seen chunks of text from this story anywhere yet. There is someone with the user name "Kissy Kissy" on AO3, but I don't think they do Harry Potter. Is there a waiting period for AO3 stories?

The next chapter of this story will probably not be posted for a while. This story is supposed to be a gift to my readers, who so faithfully voted for me in the SSHG awards. I love the concept, and have been working on it for a long time. That someone would be so bold to try to use it so they can get reviews is awful. The condensation in the review just made things worse. The last person who plagiarized from me didn't have the gall to let me know about it.

So, thank you for reading, and sorry to bring such upsetting news.
