The following FF : Living A Double Life is a word to word copy of the novel Double Life by Amanda Stevens

An easy way to fame...but what for? I observe, that 2 posts above, another work of a published author has been plagiarized by the same person. Please take some strict action to STOP this, as this being repeatedly done.

Is it okay if I post the fanfic, crediting the movie and the writers of it for the originality, and saying that this fan fic is completely based on the movie, 'Parineeta'?
Would I be allowed to post my story?

That is perfectly acceptable. Just make sure not to use the dialogues from the movie. One or two lines here and there is okay, but not the entire script. I'm sure you understand.

This one is not from the FF Section, but I have informed the Geet section moderators. Thanks!

Okay, so I'm currently reading the Gemma Doyle Trilogy, and I like it so much that I want to write an Arnav & Khushi SS based on something along the lines of that. Not the magic/paranormal stuff it has, but basically the 1800s London setting and how people acted around that time. It will be inspired from those books, but the dialogues and everything will be different and original. Is it okay if I go ahead with that?? 😊

^ Yes, that is fine. Just write it in your own words and do not copy the novel line by line.

I reported this topic a few days ago...no action has been taken, sadly.

http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=2388573

This story has been copied word to word from a Mills and Boons book. It looked fishy because the author writes completely differently in her comments so I searched google a paragraph on google and found an ebook.

I know mods are extremely busy, but there are so many plagiarisers and even when we report the topic, no action is taken.
