Looks like it's plagiarist season!

Thanks to http://greenapple.insanejournal.com/ for spotting this, and to raemcn for letting me know (and for taking all the screencaps for stop_plagiarism)!

Someone by the name of magickboxgirl has been having some fun. It seems she's plagiarised at least 3 authors, Pattyanne, hollydb and me, and as she's since deleted her journal I guess there's no way of knowing if there are more.

'Her story' posted March 2008 ( http://community.livejournal.com/tin_and_jewels/56784.html#cutid1 ) and my fic To Sin--Divine! written 3 years earlier-March 2005 ( http://www.axisoflove.org/Spike/to_sin.html ) Obviously there some changes to make it fit into the other fandom, but for the most part it is the same.

I guess people like this don't understand that fandoms are very small and fans cross over to other fandoms and read fanfic everywhere. Plagiarists WILL get caught.

Stupid woman. She stole from some of the best, I wonder what else she's pilfered and from whom?

Exactly...it's a small world and getting smaller every day!
