Hey Y'all!
You're probably really confused as to why you got a notification for this story, considering it ended. And that's perfectly fine and dandy and understandable and I'm sorry for pestering y'all.
But, a few people now have brought to my attention that someone is basically copying this story. They've changed some of the story, but it's almost word for word this story.
And at first, I was really angry. Not because someone is copying this story, but the fact that I've offered to help anyone with their own fanfics. I wanted to help everyone with their creative side and encouraged y'all to message me your story ideas or if you needed any help with a chapter or someone to proofread. And this person basically said "Yeah, nah. I'm just going to steal your work."
I get it. It's a fanfic. And ultimately, I am flattered that someone thought this story was good enough to be stolen, I guess? But, this is still not okay. I don't want to start a war with this person, I'd rather them take it down or give credit to the original story. Hell, I'll still even help them shape this story to their own. Just please, please people. Don't take someone else's work and claim it as your own. It's hurtful, not cool and honestly a huge slap in the face.
And I debated this morning if I even wanted to post another story because it really sucked seeing someone else use my work without so much as a care. But then, after much debate with my boyfriend, he reminded me that this one person does not reflect the lot of you guys. Y'all don't deserve to be punished for another person's actions.
So.
That being said.
I wrote a sequel. It'll be out this week.
Thank you guys for listening to my rant. Hope y'all are doing well and see y'all in the next chapter!
