[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what is the line between just being terrible and plagiarizing?[/quote] Funny you ask that. I am one of the published authors who posted above and i just so happened to be turning in a MS this week and I ran this by my editor — what would you think if i included a verbatim private FB post in my book, and didn’t tell the original author? Would that be cool. She laughed hard, and then said, “But seriously, no. Don’t do that.” No legit author in their right mind is confused about this.[/quote] But then why are SO many writers on Twitter brushing this off or justifying it? It honestly blows my mind. I thought plagiarism was like the number one thing to NOT do, as writers?[/quote]
