* Re: No Translations or Printing of my works please *
Evening (/Morning) all~~
I haven’t been sure whether I should announce this or not, but it is becoming a problem and I don’t want to let it get out of hand.
Please, I do not want any of my works translated &/or posted elsewhere/printed, even if for personal use.
I promise I’m not saying that to be an asshole, and I don’t want to be mean or upset anyone. But a lot of my works I developed into “fanfiction” based on original books I had already written, & at some point, I want to attempt to publish them through the mainstream. I can’t do that however, if they are floating around elsewhere. I am constantly editing, changing & updating my stories, & I want to keep everything consistent. But I can’t do that when it’s on other people’s accounts & other websites, & I have no way of knowing what is being done to my work in languages I can’t read.
There are however, a number of people who have been doing this anyway, & blocking me so I can’t see them, under the assumption that I won’t find out. To the few who have messaged me for permission, & then blocked me after I’ve declined, please take them down. Obviously, u won’t see this, since u BLOCKED me, but guys, come on…
If anyone happens across any of my works elsewhere in other languages, especially on wattpad, can u please report it & screenshot it to send to me so I can try to get them taken down?? I’d really appreciate it.
I’m not doing this to be an asshole, I’m really not. I just… *sigh. Can’t I reserve my right to refuse? I’m tired… I love it here, I rlly do, but lately, with not only the theft and plagiarism, but this too, I feel like I’m seeing more dark than light.
Please also do not print and make copies of them either…
I feel gross, I’m sorry, but I need to have it said.
And on that (rather gross) note, I hope u are all having a nice night/day ♡
All my love.
Eve
