UPDATE ON THE COPIED FANFIC:
          	
          	As y'all may know if you read my last message, there's a fanfiction going around that is almost identical to Wicked Hate down to the last comma. I have spoken with the author and they claim they only took "inspo" from my fanfic and others they have read. However, when there are scenes practically identical but with different names it is no longer inspiration, it's plain copying. I wanted to be as polite as possible on my approach, asking them to please take out the copied parts or I'd have to report their story but seeing they tried to deny copying my work (as if i didn't recognise my own writing and words) I had to report their story.
          	
          	I don't know very well how copyright works with fanfics considering the original source does not belong to me, but I hope something can be done because, after all, I put a whole year of my life into making Wicked Hate and there are many parts of it which are purely original thoughts from Inés and me. I put my whole heart on it. And it pisses me off that someone can simply copy it, change 4 or 5 things and call it a day.
          	
          	Thanks for all the support you have shown me on this and hopefully Wattpad will take action.

Isn’t that quite literally plagiarism?
