Interesting. Sometimes a phrase or description can be similar to a passage in another work and not mean anything in itself, but a lot of her stuff is blatant and involves entire themes. I wonder if she is capable of original work. Not that I care to find out.

Exactly. Retelling a classic hero's quest story is one thing, sure you can take your own spin on a storyline. But when your story involves using the same kind of language as other works, exact same words without credit or crediting the wrong sources, it becomes more sketchy than I am comfortable with.

And when I used you in the paragraph above, I mean you as a general you.

She also copied several pages, word for word, from some of Pamela Dean's published works. And the revisionist history is that she did have permission to use it, but she got that permission well after the fact, after the shitstorm had hit and she'd already been banned FFNet for that specific piece of plagiarism. Original fic did not credit the author.
