Yesterday, I was out with an attack from the mother of us all. If you follow me on Facebook, or especially if you have been around on Facebook you will know what I am talking about. For the rest of you, you can just wonder.
So what happened?!?!?
The thief, that stole stories, has come back out and attacked one of my friends.
Not acceptable.
Not at all.
So. I will tell you what I have gathered. A lot of people are angry. So angry that they are taking action. Which I full heartedly agree with. They are keeping this clean folks, we are not descending down to her level. But we refuse to be silent, since that has done nothing but make her think she can continue to do things.
I seriously believe that this person is young, or young in mind. The way she goes about things is not mature, nor is it something that a bunch of adults need to deal with, but since there seems no stopping, there is a time that you have to say stop.
But, Kitty, you are replying to her! You are feeding the troll, you are giving her the attention she craves!
I will answer to this. I ignored her. My friends ignored her. And she didn’t quit. We took the very high road. And she did not learn a lesson. Instead she acted out on accounts she has POSTED that are hers but she is not able to access. This smacks of a young person who does not think the consequences of her actions all the way through. It may have been good enough in school, but this is the real life, and the world doesn’t operate like that.
She has been warned. But she has not learned a lesson. She has somehow got it in her head that this is allowable. That she has some right by being published on Amazon that allows her to be better than the rest of us. That she is right.
I’m sorry, but lessons in real life are about to commence. We are taking a stand, and asking others to join us in this. Over on Bertie Bott’s site, there is a petition going on. I highly recommend you go there and participate in it. One stand instead of many might get the attention of FanFiction.
There are advocators for the rights of FanFiction writers. While I get traffic from FanFiction and use them to gain interest from stories, their attitude that FanFiction Writers have no rights, has gained me nothing but disgust for them.
So here is my plan. I will reply to Bertie‘s petition. Then I will do my own campaigning, taking this morning to report each and every story. I know there is more plagiarizing going on, and I have asked for people to read her stories, to check for their own being stolen. There are storylines I have seen being taken from stories I have read on Twilight, she is now writing for other fandoms to help hide her tracks. It isn’t working very well if I noticed. So I will report the stories.
If I am taken off FanFiction since I have the audacity to complain about another author, say la vie. Less work for me to update on. I will NOT be working any new stories to the site. The stories that are there, well they will be stopped soon. Sorry for the FanFiction readers, but this is my stand.
FanFiction repeatedly erases others works without the courtesy of warning them as an adult will. They refuse to be adults, so why should I continue to treat them like the children they are. Will this hurt me? Maybe. But I like to think I am established enough to make that decision. I will post a summary of any stories I write so they can be teased with what they are missing.
I am taking a stand, and I am tired of the idiocy that has overtaken the world. Plagiarism is WRONG. It is stealing and there is no religion in the world that accepts this as acceptable. This person thinks she is above the law, above the acceptable society acceptable norm. She thinks she is above us all, and treats the rules as not even a guideline to what is acceptable.
Basically. I will be reposting on my reblog all of the responses to all of this, and I highly recommend that you read them all. I also highly recommend you sign up on Bertie‘s petition. And finally. The person who has borne this attack.
Go to her site and follow her. Do it because she is a kickass author that deserves none of this.
Do it because it is the right thing to do.
Do it to show your support behind someone who only defended herself and had her stories removed from FanFiction.
Again, I am tired of this, and I am done with so much of it. And I will do what I can before I am probably taken off. I will break TOS in FanFiction to post on EVERY story I have about what has happened. What I think. So expect to see this post everywhere.
And if you don’t believe all this, I would like to redirect you to the actual exchanges I had with her on the subject that I posted here before:
For anyone needing these screens shots and so on, I have the actual emails I am able to forward on this.
Also. Sorry guys. But I will NOT be posting any stories until this is taken care of. Especially not on FanFiction. I know you guys are thinking this is a punishment, but hell. I am taking a stand and doing on of the things I think will tell of my stand on this. It is one of the ways I am trying to help. I will not post a single story or chapter on any site until this is resolved.
There will be radio silence until this is taken care of. The only things you will hear about is about this situation.
This is my line in the sand, and I will not back down. That line might as well be in concrete.
Have you ever had one of those days that nothing seemed to go right? That was yesterday. I got to the point that I was ready to throw my hand sup and say fuck it. Yes. I actually said the word instead of Duck. That should tell you that I didn’t care about Autotcorrect, to say what I wanted, I would fight the damn thing.
My phone was acting up. And wouldn’t sync a new song that I have drove everyone crazy trying to guess this song from NFL games and Marty’s Madden 15. All I could hear was the damn beat, however, I wanted the song. It ended up being Dangerous by Big Data. Thank you Siri. When a song catches my attention with the beat, it is safe to say it is on it’s way to inspire a chapter or something that I will be typing huge amounts of words when I figure out what story it fits. Right now.. the next You’re (which is not on the board to start) is playing around since I could see the song being perfect for Damon…..
Anywho, I wanted the song on my phone. I ended up having to reset the entire phone, which happened after I ended up deleting my major playlist off my computer from my phone. WTFH?!?!?!?!
Oh yes. There was a lot of that going on…. And cussing and so on. So I had to rebuild the dang list, and do you know how hard that is?!?! It is an ongoing piece of work, that I delete songs and add songs on all the time. I basically didn’t load the ones I know I have kicked off the list for sure, but I am having to listen to them all and am continually deleting songs. To give you an idea, this is the list I normally put anything that may inspire me to write more. Instead of allowing it to run in the background until my subconscious clicks and screams with the voice of one of the muses, “THERE!!! That ONE. Use IT!!!!” Yes, they scream loudly.
During this, my dad was home, complaining how Murphy, who we have had for 2 weeks now, isn’t potty trained yet. Really?!?!?!? Cue another head bang.
Then I remembered that I didn’t finish the chapter for this week’s Cross The Line. I left off to finish that one, ready to turn the above head bang into other outlets, and instead, my muse came out of left field. She laughed at my ideas of where the story was going to go, and forcefully wrenched my head out of planning tortures and the like, to the course she decided on. I was not happy. I wanted to let lose Gabriel and allow him to have fun. Oh what she did was Amazing, it was Stupendous!! It blew me away and I love it. But I wanted to torture someone.
In the attempt to save something from my brain, I won’t bang my head anymore. Never mind that crap. Pillow anyone?!?!
There that is better… and it makes you want to bang your head more s you look at it…
So I went to make dinner, while still fighting with my phone for not loading 500+ songs for unknown reason. But it did load the song I was after. Win or lose?!?!
But I did find some songs like Candy and some others I had forgotten I owned. For good and bad. Some I am still trying to figure out who loaded them on my computer.
ugh
Matter went on to make yesterday where my head hurt too much to head bang.
Cue today. Dogs. Yes Plural. Connor included, decided that today would be a day to test mommy. TO pee on the floor. Where I know who did what…
Then I noticed that I didn’t make FFN banners for my stories Wisdom, lost and found the Mummy one, and for the hell of it, made one for the Songs of Alice. Up above is the one for Wisdom, and as I mentioned I found the Mummy one and it is loaded. The Alice one? Yeah I got fancy and make a collage. I make them, I don’t have photoshop do them. I made it way too hard on myself in the end. Typical.
We can’t forget the family drama, that if I wrote it up, you wouldn’t believe it. Any of it. And next week it will be part of the Thanksgiving holiday. Oh Joy.
That is my life. In two lousy days this has come down on me, and I am ready to run for the hills. And they call me crazy?!? You have to be to deal with all this!!
But… Bertie Bott, who is having her own set of woes, worked to give you this chapter. She worked HARD!!!! SO you need to give her kudos. I will when she comes back. I just hope she didn’t decide to run off on me…
So click on the banner above for the new chapter. We have 2 more before this part of the story is done. I am STILL trying to work on Mummy, and then move on to Heavenly get a one shot out, and all the fun we have going on.
After the Mummy’s post, this site will be pretty much quiet. I gave the time off, and I will be using some of it to relax, to get ahead of my awesome betas, and to deal with the above mess while I cook for people.
So reminders!
Please use the link. Costs you nothing, gives me money for you clicking on it aka referring from my site. Thanks!!!
Kill Bill. Due on the night of the 30th.
Banner contest for the Facebook ladies, it is a Christmas theme. Have at it, and due on the 29th so we can vote on the banner for the month of December.
The interview. Will be done once I can get back to IND. I am trying!!!!
I think that is everything. If I forgot… Sorry!!! Enjoy the chapter!
Yes, I can play on words too for the title of the Post… I just have so much other things to play on also… What can I say?!?! I’m easily amused!
So.. The chapter you guys are waiting on… Click below for it!
Another reminder. I do give my betas the week of Thanksgiving off. So… This will be the last All I Want until after Thanksgiving. And be prepared for Christmas themed everything. I love Christmas. I will be home this year, so I am going to be pulling everything out and doing my bits.
I love cold weather. I woke up this morning in a COLD room, cuddled under warm blankets. It is one of the best feelings to me, and I love just to lie there with a big ole grin on my face enjoying it. When I got up, I made tea, and a bowl of coco wheats. I celebrated the beginning of winter in my own way.
I also get more energetic during this season. No idea why. but I am more likely to make huge meals, start exercising, write more, clean house and so on during this cold season. Doesn’t make a lick of sense! I’m Slavic mostly, and we normally hibernate during this season. Me? I am willing to do way more than I do during the rest of the year. Go figure.
So I am here, working, while my tea is going cold too fast in a cup, but the container I have that it won’t get so cold in, keeps things warmer than my carafe. Yes, it has been known to keep my stuff warm for an hour after the carafe goes cold. I need either another one or one in between. Or a new carafe!
Ok on to the Monday Madness!
This is hard to decide to pick who. So many people deserve it, and I have no idea any more who all have got it. So be patient, you will all be done, I am just going through it all and making notes when I do it now!
This week I wanted to introduce someone new, but who has been one of my sounding blocks. I never knew I was part of the group who inspired her, cause you know, who could I inspire!?!?!?
Anywho the person of the week is:
This woman blows me away on how much she writes, and how fantastic she is!! Her stories are so varied, and such unique takes on it all that I just shake my head and enjoy.
She was one of the ones that the thief stole her stories, And she is also one of the ladies who support anything I want to try out. And if you make her a banner? Wow is she thankful. She came online to Facebook, and then we talked her into WordPress. Which was about the time that we moved this site.
She had a health scare, and it was not one any of us would want. It drove home the fact that we are all human, and makes me value her so much more, knowing how close we came to losing her. Glad my curse didn’t take this year so far! (Yes I knock on my wooden desk!)
Today she announced she was back to writing, and posted the announcement and chapter on her Blog. If you click on the banner of her name above, you will be taken to her blog.
Also, she is one of the authors who are joining the Anthem of the Angels universe. I truly cannot wait to see what she is going to do!
I am off to work on chapters until Hubs calls, then work until he gets home, then I need to work on dinner. Busy busy life!!!
This is not your normal post. I am online to do a class for Photoshop, well to do as many as I can, but I remembered I never formally did the post for the contest.
Oops.
So here it is. Kill Bill.
This is because I had a lot of people ask for it, and decided to go ahead and host it. I am going to see what the response is, and even if we want to do another. I do have other contests, including one for Christmas. Its playing around in my head, so I will let you guys know then.
Here are the rules:
Must use prompt(s). You either have to Kill Bill from True Blood/SVM OR mention the line Kill Bill in the story. Nothing more, nothing less!
Use characters in my stories.(Though you will get extra credit for doing this!)
No letting anyone knowing which story is yours.
If you submit, you can grab the Banner for Participating for the month.
If explicit, you need to warn people in the title.
All entries must be received by kittyinazwritingchallenges@gmail.com by Midnight CST at the end of the last day of the month.
To enter, you can send it to the Kittyinazsbetas@gmail.com or to the Writing Contest email, KittyinazWritingChallenges@gmail.com by midnight on November 30th 2014 CST. These are both permanent email addresses that Rissa checks for entries and really anything. Please include the name you want on the banners when the contest is over for Rissa to send to me. She sends the stories to me, and erases any way of me knowing who wrote what. They are due by the end of the month, and give me a few days to do the banners. If you wish to send them in early, please do, I will be able to do the banners ahead of time, and get them ready for publishing early.
The banner above is the Participation banner for the contest.
That’s it!
And so I don’t have to do another Post to tell you, The Cross the Line chapter is ready over at the Anthem of the Angels. Please remember to sign up for receiving the emails. There are times I may not be able to post the chapter, and the betas can do it for me. Thanks!
It’s my rendition of the Saturday Evening Post. And I spent most of the day either in bed trying to sleep, or taking meds. Sometimes I HATE insomnia. Ok.. I always hate it. Specially when I had been doing pretty good, one day can ruin it all and I end up spending more time trying to feel good, when it feels like I am getting something. But normally I am not. Ah well.
Today’s Offering: The Mummy/Twilight.
Click the banner to be taken to it.
Just a reminder of the tentative Schedule that we are working on per the schedule we have posted in our chats:
Sunday – None (But I am off this day along with all of you!)
Monday – All I Want
Tuesday – None
Wednesday – I Never…Did Posting all the chapters previous to this day on the other sites.…
Thursday – Wisdom, Justice and Love
Friday – Heavenly on Kittyinaz, Cross The Line on AoA
Saturday – The Mummy, or Clocks
This is tentative. Meaning, if I am not feeling good, or the betas are not feeling good, their family comes first and so on happens, it is able to be skipped. We try to stick to it, knowing how much you guys like to read your favorites on the days you normally get it, but the holidays are coming up. That means more Betas doing other things and that I might actually be busy. ::author pauses for gasps of shock:: Yes. This is the time of year I go visiting and do holiday stuff too.
I will warn you the weeks of Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years are all considered holidays by me, and I enforce them on the betas. So don’t expect anything those weeks. They all have lives and since we all do this for free, I want them to enjoy that time. A lot of them write also. So basically, I am spelling this out, so you guys know to give us a break. Last year at this time I was in AZ, and I wrote All I Want in those weeks. Just saying. Good things can happen. Just we dont’ want to have to do it.
Ok.
General information as always.
Kill Bill. Entries are due at midnight on the 30th. You guys asked this from me, and I am willing to give it a go. Last time there were two entries. If no more are entered, I will be retiring Kill Bill.
Amazon, As always, the link is to make it easier to click it to go straight there. If you make the page your favorite when you arrive, you will always have link giving me credit. Thanks for all the clicks, it is helping!!
Reblog page. Yes I reblog everything I can. Sometimes, I forget and delete on my iPad. For some reason, on the iPad it hides the reblog box behind the banners on most pages, but not all of them. So I try!
Other than that, I think I will be going to rest. I know Bertie Bott is trying to get to Cross the Line over in Anthem of Angels, but she isn’t feeling too well. I swear, I sometimes think we do spread our germs through viruses on the computer!! We often all get sick together!
Many huge thanks to Bertie Bott for betaing this even though she was sick. I told her that her health comes first! But she ignored me. I understand that. I sneak onto the computer when I am sick too. Shhhh it’s a secret! I get bored!
Murphy is gaining weight. He is no longer skeleton dog. We are giving him the medicine for his allergies to the flea bites, his poor nose was a mess of blisters, and they are going away. We are giving him the stuff for his mange, and he is getting fur. Slowly, but hey it has been two weeks. We are dealing with the potty training. That is a mess. I think I rather have babies with their diapers. But we are slowly getting there.
Ok reminders: (remember to click the banner to be taken to the sites!)
Kill Bill is this month. Either you can do the whole Kill Bill from Tb/SVM or you can do any story with the mention of the words Kill Bill in them.
Amazon, I really can do with all the help possible. I am posting the link often to help you guys out if you think of it!
Reblog page. It is slow and then there are busy days. If you want an idea of who I follow and when they post, that is a great place to see them.
And lastly, but not by far, I have a new team member!
This is Lisha. We have been working to learn Photoshop, and she is doing great. Her first pieces were like a month of me doing them! So please welcome her. She is aiming to help us out with the Banners, as well as The Anthem of the Angels site. I can’t wait to see what she can do!
Not much for today, but I am tired. A cold front came through and all I want to do is crawl into bed. I even blow dried my hair cause going to bed with wet hair was just not something I wanted to deal with. No it doesn’t make you sick, but I don’t like my hair being cold. Don’t ask…
So have fun, enjoy the chapter! The next mummy chapter will be Saturday. I am hoping that I can get another chapter done for the Mummy, I just finished chapter 3 today.
A new chapter of AIW is ready and waiting for you courtesy of Mknue!!! She got this ready for you guys. Click on the banner below, and please not the warning on the Banner.
Ok, I need some feedback. I am posting more (since I am working to rid of all those pesky chapters that are already written) and to be frank, on Sundays, I spend the time with my hubby. Often I am working so late on AotA and other thigs on Saturday I go to bed and go.. Damn the Sunday post.
I am thinking of eliminating it completely. But I want to know if you guys enjoy the videos. If you do, I can sneak a couple in sometime during the week. Maybe Tuesdays? You tell me what you like. Feed back is ALWAYS appreciated.
Mondays will be the new home of the Person of the Week for sure. Since I have so many people to thank for all their hard work!
This week is 4Padfoot and Gyllene. Why two? and haven’t you done them before?
Why yes I have. But between those two wonderful ladies they keep this site running smoothly. I had a reminder this past week of what all they do, as I did some of my own links and so forth since there are such days unfortunately as sick and vacation (well not that one is unfortunately!).
To keep up the links on this site is not easy. Not difficult no, but very time consuming, especially when we have new stories that came up to start.
Both ladies also help me out when I ask questions, and they rock my socks right off. I would say soo much more, but I have limited time before I am gone. Click on the icons below to be taken to their sites!
Which brings me to, I won’t be on today. I have dentist working on the other side of my jaw, and it aint going to be fun. Poor Murphy is going to be in a crate most of the day since I will come home, take some Aleve, and go to sleep. Hoping that I don’t bite anything important.
Update on Murphy, he has now started his medicine on his skin, Allergy and the mange one. He has gained weight, and my mom found out how exhausting puppy training is. She doesn’t have the help of Connor like I do, even then, it is just mostly Connor keeping him company. But she managed a day without accidents. Yeah!
He is looking better, and all of us can’t wait until his skin is all healed. Mange and Allergic reaction to flea is not a pretty smell let me tell you. WE have wipes that we use each day, but can’t bath him too much.
But… He hops. Yes. Hops. And he is running through the house with Connor. Playing, being so active and loving it aint funny. He licked my mom’s cat yesterday, not once, but five or so many times, and Tucker had this irritated look on his face. they play so much and love to play around my desk. So I can be working, and have my desk suddenly rocking from the two of them. Right now as I type this, they are running through the house back into here. they race around the island in the kitchen, and Connor outsmarts the puppy each time. Fun Times!
I am going to end this so you guys can read, and I can share this everywhere it needs to be. Enjoy the chapter!
YEAH!!!! I got to sleep in!!! OMG it felt so good. Not to rush out of bed, to take out puppies and so on.
So today is the day I know at least the ladies in the Kittyinaz Facebook Page have been waiting on. They have been teased about this story for awhile, and I know they will be happy to finally be able to read this one in the full unedited version!
Yes. The Mummy/Twilight Crossover is now happening! The first chapter sets up the theme, the idea of the story. This is a short one for me, but it will consist of three minor stories in one. The first one is done, and I am working on editing it right now. Well I would be but it’s the weekend and I am normally working on Anthem of the Angels universe. I need to write more stories for it, and I will be doing that right after I post this and do all the sharing and so on.
There is the cover page…
And for those ladies who have been following this the entire time:
Click on the appropriate banner to get where you need to. There is a character page, and as I go through editing, I will be adding characters I think you need to know.
Reminders:
Well you know these. I will just do the Amazon link in case you guys are shopping online.
So enjoy your Saturday, and while it is short, I can’t wait to see your impressions. And Mucho Gracias go to MistressJessica1028 who beta’d this bad boy. And to the ladies in the Beta chat who encouraged me to write this when even I was going… WTH? Thanks for taking a chance with me ladies!
This is a quick note to let you guys know the new Cross the Line Chapter is up and ready on Anthem of the Angels site.
By Clicking the banner above, you are acknowledging and accepting the rules on the sties’ front page. This site is M rated. If you are not old enough to read, DON’T!!!
I’m off for my nap. Slight headache and it will enable me to work later. I spent the entire day with Connor, unfortunately for me, he barked the entire time. Needless to say, I need some aspirin!
Enjoy the chapter, and I will see you guys tomorrow, with the first chapter of the Mummy Crossover!
And yes you have another new chapter ready for you!
I am up early, we have a puppy who is much more playful, but he is still having some issues. I can’t wait until the weekend and the chance to maybe…just maybe…sleep in. I think I have forgotten what even 6 hours of sleep is like. Anyone who tells me that pets are not children, well, I am not seeing the difference. Maybe they get past it faster?
I also have a Connor who is thrilled his new buddy is playing now. And a missing Morgan who got out before all this started and not home. As well as a Tucker (MamaKitty’s Cat) who is pissed at everyone, but loving on me. Seems he is just used to me bringing in strays. Wonder what that says about me?
Ok. Reminders.
Amazon, remember this costs nothing to you guys, and often helps me out in ways you have no idea. I am getting $10-$20 a month from it. Not much, but every cent helps.
Kittyinaz’s Relobg page. I am using this just to reblog the WordPress stuff. There is a way to get one posting that has all the daily postings in it. I know cause I have a page for that. Go to My blogs, and go to Kityinaz’s reblog page, and click on it. Change it from immediately to daily. That’s it.
Kill Bill is this month!! And yes, I made the banner! If you want more information, please click on the banner above to be taken to the page.
I’m off to work on the end of Chapter 2 of The Mummy. I almost finished it last night, but I had to put murphy away and listen to him cry, he doesn’t settle down until much later. Tonight MamaKitty is buying him a crate for her room, so that will be easier.
It truly is amazing the stuff you can find on the internet. I searched Alexander Skarsgard leprechaun and the picture above is what popped up. I think it is fitting for today. Sorry I missed posting last week, but Daylight Savings in the USA screwed me up. Losing one hour completely wrecked my week. I…
Can someone please explain to me why I am seeing more snow in March than I did in the entire months of December and January???? I should be getting ready for spring, not worrying about shoveling 8 inches of snow. The only way snow in March is acceptable is if it this is part of…
Hello lovelies. I cannot guarantee I will be back to publishing weekly, but I will try. My dear beta, kleannhouse, is in high demand trying to juggle the stories of three writers. She is amazing and she makes me laugh with all of her comments on my stories. This one especially. I started this story…
