Dear Readers,
It saddens me that I have to even put such a notice up, but it has become a necessity. For those of you who think it is okay to take a writer's work and share it without their permission, or post it somewhere without asking them, I assure you it is not. Granted these works are those that you so enjoyed reading but they are also the works that the writer has spent days and nights dreaming up to convey into words and put on paper for you. They have spent their time, energy, and poured their creative mojo into these letters and words, through pen and paper, and onto the screen in front of you. And I request you - respect that. Respect the writing process. Respect the effort. Respect the time that it took for the writer to deliver you that story that you liked so much.
By copying someone's work, you are doing nothing but disrespecting the writer, disrespecting your fellow readers, and making a mockery of yourself.
With that I have to add on a personal note, if anyone is found to be copying my work, PLAGIARIZING my work, there will be legal action taken.
And for those of you, my lovely readers, who have stuck by me, and supported me, even in times when I have not written, I thank you. If you see my works published somewhere, please let me know. You can PM me on IF, or use the "Contact Me" option on the homepage of my blog, located in the panel to your right.
I am reopening my blog because I refuse to be restricted by anyone who plagiarizes another person's work and then hides behind the false safety of a computer screen. For those copiers - you will be caught. And for my loyal readers, thank you for backing me up.
Sincerely,
Blayde
its really horrible that ppl steal others hardwork..i can understand what u feel...i have read ur stories soo many time and i was bit sad that u might not write ...but i m glad u r here back and we all r with u .. and i respect ur decision whatever u took and will do in future...glad to have u back :)
ReplyDeleteDear blayde, your hardwork has inspired us to read more and more of your works... We are glad that you're back and your decision will be our utmost...
ReplyDeleteHi blayde,
ReplyDeleteFirst of all so very happy to see you again. Second of all NOT TO YOU !!!! I mean what is wrong with these people ? The same thing happened to Tina last month but thankful,y she has started writing again. I was actually wondering what had happened that u suddenly closed ur blog I tried contacting u in Twitter also but the request is still pending.
I for one know that I can't write a single page worth reading... But u people are doing so and doing great at that. So I can understand what you will be feeling.u and Tina are the two people who are giving us wonderful stories even after the show is complete as a loyal reader we are very much thankful to you. If the people who posted ur work areso crazy abt ur work then they should have given the link to the stories or recommended ur blog and not copy it anywhere . So what ever decision u take I am with u and I will respect ur decision.
Note --- sorry for the long comment couldn't control myself. And btw Twitter I'd is divya146
Good. Ugh the yaar... Keeping my fingers crossed to get good news from ur side
please write more
ReplyDeleteMiss your writings.
ReplyDeletePlease continue writing. Your stories are magical & simply too beautiful to be true. No one writes like you, you are one in a million.Please continue the magic.
ReplyDeleteI seriously and honestly hate those who stole and plagiarized other writers' work. I am sorry that this had happened to you...and I hope you'll keep writing and not letting those losers/cheaters prevent you from writing.
ReplyDeleteI salute those writers who are so good in what they do and sharing their works so others can read them. Kudos to you, Tina (she's one of my fave writers on Arnav-Khushi fics) and other writers and thank you for sharing your talent of writing and stories with us readers. Hope you guys will keep on writing coz I'm sure your supporters/readers (including moi) will keep reading your stories and giving you their support :)
Hi Blayde, you won't believe how happy I am to see your stories being available again for us to read. I am really sorry to hear about your work being plagiarized and hope it doesn't happen again. Having said that, thank you so much for reopening your blog! I used to be an ardent reader of your stories back when IPKKND was the center of our lives. I randomly decided to search for your stories today, absolutely prepared to find them unavailable for me to read. Guess I just had to try, and lo and behold, I got lucky! Do keep writing in future, we love your stories.
ReplyDeleteThoughtful blog thanks for posting.
