Indeed, Tpt speaks true...and so does Red X...sort of. They are fan fics.

The people listed here are people who copy-pasted the entire story THEN called it their own.

Though, why would you write about Harry Potter? It's a book in the first place...

Hey, I wrote a 150 page Harry Potter fanfic when I was in 9th grade stick out tongue

Fanfics are in a very grey area when it comes to plagiarism. There are certain authors that, if they find fanfiction based on their works, request that it be removed. When I post fanfics (particularly when I post on fanfiction.net because they're sticklers for this) I generally include a disclaimer stating that the basic ideas and pre-existing characters I didn't invent and don't belong to me, but anything original that's in the story IS mine.

I have been posting that on FF.net and it has this massively long disclaimer on it...I just didn't bother with that on here because everyone KNOWS I didn't create the story or any of the characters but San.

For Starkiller I put thank you's to the folks featured in it, so I guess that's the credit-givin' there.

Not yet, anyways. You'll be in there when Starkiller II wraps up.

I found you on FF.net!

Wasn't so hard... stick out tongue

Was looking for the Star Wars story because I didn't realise you hadn't written one!

Lots of writers have. Two I know of off the top of my head are Ann Rice and Anne McCaffrey. JK is, so far as I've heard, fine with fanfics of her work.

I've had that account for YEARS, and as you can see I nearly never update it anymore. And I have yet to write a SW story that I think is good enough to post stick out tongue

once I finish enough of Rianna's story to post, though, I think I'll put it on there.
