Hello All,
          	I just first wanted to apologize to the authors of the stories I posted that assumed that I was "stealing" their hard work. I never once tried to take credit for any story that was posted here, nor did I have any intention of doing so. I simply wanted to read these stories on my phone. Clearly, I can not carry a computer around with me and read at anytime, like I can with my phone. That was my only intention. I believe every author should be credited for their work, no matter how big or how small, or how wonderful or terrible, their story may be. 
          	
          	To my fans:
          	I will no longer be posting stories on here for people to read. I'm sorry to those of you who were in the middle of stories and can no longer read them on your phones. I guess now you will just have to be glued to your computer chairs and read them when you have access to a computer. Every story I pulled was either from www.twilighted.net or www.fanfiction.net. I hope you all enjoyed reading while you could. Have a blessed day. 
          	
          	Plagiarism- the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work.
          	
          	Some stories I did not have the authorization to post but never claimed them to be mine. Therefore, I was not commiting an act of plagiarism. 
          	
          	Have a wonderful day TwiHards! ;)

if you like stories on fantasy, romance, suspense, drama, and much more do i have a story you might like. this story does have a vampire in it however my own definition of how i think vampires should be. if you are interested just stop by my profile and read Moonlight Angel. I also have a lot of poetry up under The poetry Factor if you are interested in poetry you might enjoy that. Please vote, comment, and read as much as you like. Thanks to all.

Let's be fair and call it copyright infringment then. Presently, most things are copyrighted the second they are written, & a copyright notice is not required. Copyright is violated whether you charge money or not, & whether or not you listed proper credit to the work's creator. Postings to the internet are not granted to the public domain unless they specifically state that, & it doesn't grant you any permission to copy them to other places.
          
          The stories you copied belong to the authors who wrote them, & unless they gave you permission, you had no right to distribute them. While the authors can't profit from these stories without removing all recognizable characters, the stories themselves still belong to the people who wrote them, & they retain the right to do with those stories as they wish. They post them online so other people can enjoy them, not steal them & post them somewhere else without authorization.
          
          That's exactly what you've done here.  What's worse is that reviews and page hits are all these authors get for their efforts, and you have essentially denied them that by posting their stories under your own profile.  Did you forward the votes and comments you received to the authors who deserved them?  I doubt it.  From what I've been told you knew enough to ask some authors for permission, but when you didn't get it, you simply decided to post anyhow.  Yes, you absolutely stole these stories.
          
          And let's address this statement about how everyone now needs to be glued to computer chairs.  Plenty of fanfiction readers and writers alike access websites every day via cell phone.  Aside from having to type a couple of extra letters into the web address, I hardly see how that requires them to be inconvenienced.  The readers can still enjoy these stories on their mobile phones, just as I do on a daily basis.  I've been accessing fanfiction.net and twilighted.net on my phone for over a year.  Not having these stories on Wattpad doesn't change that.

@keepitclassy: I'm not stealing work. Stealing peoples stories would be claiming these stories as my own and trying to past them off as that. However, I have not once done that. Every story has been credited to it's proper author and before EVERY story I state 'This is NOT my story, and I just wanted to read it on my phone."

Hi, of course I will be posting more stories. Just remember that the stories I post are not mine. I pull almost all of the stories off of www.twilighted.net. I like to read and so I post them here so I can read them on my phone. I'm glad that you like them though. I'm sure the authors of them appreciate it. :)
