Plagiarism Alert: Author Romilly King Plagiarized Destiel Fanfic

eHey ya'll - reposting this on Tumblr, on behalf of a the OP on Twitter, who gave me permission. The original thread is here: https://twitter.com/KokomRoily/status/1422965705167806471

(if you have trouble reading the side-by-sides check Twitter)

FROM TWITTER (I am NOT the "I" in these! But I know who is, they're a friend, and this evidence looks pretty iron-clad to me)

>I'm what you'd call a voracious reader. I read all the time, everywhere. I read non-fiction, fiction, & fanfiction. I don't discriminate great stories. What I do despise is plagiarism. Color me surprised when I bought "Paid to Kneel" by Romilly King. It seemed so familiar.

>By chapter 2, I realised I could mouth along with the lines, because this is almost verbatim "You can hurt me, it's okay, baby" by Blue_Jack.

>All of these screenshots are of "Paid to Kneel" (with yellow highlights of plagiarised text) next to "If you hurt me, that's okay, baby" by Blue_Jack on Ao3.

(unforth's note: ...I've hit Tumblr's image limit, but you get the idea. There are even more images on Twitter, but even just these ten prove the point. Here's the rest of OP's commentary from the thread)

>I contacted Blue Jack to see if they're Romilly. They're not. They filed a plagiarisation claim with Amazon, who pulled the book. The audio book still remains, for the moment.

>Romilly has published a book approximately once a month during 2020 and into 2021. It's entirely possible she's been writing ahead of time and is only publishing now. It's also entirely possible she's plagiarised more fic.

>The plagiarisation isn't even remotely subtle.

>This was a work put out into the world to be enjoyed for free. Blue_Jack spent *hours and hours* writing and editing this *for free*, for people to enjoy *for free*, and someone tried profiting from it. That's not okay.

>If this fanfiction has been plagiarised so thoroughly, how can I trust other books by Romilly aren't also plagiarised fic? If this fanfiction has been plagiarised so thoroughly, how can I trust other books by Romilly aren't also plagiarised fic?

>I suggest you go read the fanfic, if you like kinky Destiel. It's *most* excellent. https://archiveofourown.org/works/5200685

And a little more from me -

Romilly King has almost 23 books out since early last year up on Amazon. They've got thousands of reviews on Goodreads. Given how often they publish, and how flagrantly they plagiarized this one, whatcha want to bet they've stolen wholesale from many different authors in different fandoms? This is major, guys, and totally unacceptable.

Spread this like wild-fire, and let's bring this plagiarist down in flames!

How to talk to children

This is based on decades of experience as an uncle and as an older brother.

  • Never forget that children are just as much people as adults are.
  • Kids 10 years or younger (and sometimes older than that) don’t get sarcasm or irony, so don’t use them.
  • If a child has difficulty pronouncing a word, don’t copy their misprounciation when speaking to them. They can hear the word just fine. It could sound to them like you’re making fun of them.
  • (Yes, this means no babytalk)
  • Don’t be dismissive.
  • Listen to what they’re saying.
  • To get on the same eye-level, don’t bend over or squat: it seems condescending. Kneeling or sitting are better.
  • It should go without saying that you should respect children’s body autonomy. Don’t force affection on them.
  • Respect children’s emotional autonomy as well. Let them be angry. Let them be sad. Don’t force them to be happy.
  • Let children like things. Don’t run down the things they like just because you find them cringy.
  • Don’t think that you know better.
  • To children, adults are giants. Be a big friendly giant.
  • Don’t stifle children’s curiosity.
  • Don’t stifle children’s enthusiasm.
  • To quote Sondheim, “Be careful the words you say, children will listen.”
  • Don’t look down on children.

When I worked at the before and after school program, I had all elementary school ages and this list is perfectly defined how to talk to kids.

One thing I want to add is: let kids just play. Let them use their imagination. If they’re running too fast but they think they’re sonic the hedgehog, just tell them “be a slower sonic so you don’t fall down.”

Anonymous asked:

Hey~ can you tell us about the straw hats with veils coming down to cover the wearer's face we see mostly in wuxia? I have seen some very pretty ones with added accessories like pearls and flowers too. What are they called?

Hi, thanks for the question!

The traditional Chinese veiled hats that we mostly see in Wuxia are called Weimao/帷帽. I wrote about the history of Weimao in this post. Please also see this post by fate-magical-girls for further information on the history/evolution of Chinese veiled hats.

As you’ve noticed, it’s recently become trendy among Hanfu wearers to decorate Weimao with various kinds of accessories such as pearls and flowers. The effect is really pretty!

Weimao can be worn by men as well:

Hope this helps!
