The bad news is a few of my stories have appeared on Wattpad without my consent and without giving me proper credit- “What Was Sacrificed”, “The Binding Mask” (misspelled as “The Blinding Mask”, which is an understandable mistake), “Fu Manchu’s Serum”, “Kumiho” (which seems to have been deleted), “Dawn’s Notebooks”, and “Periodic Nyctophobia”. One of my stories is on Facebook (“Binding Symbol”), once again without permission or credit. It steams me that these creeps our taking our stories and passing them off like they’re responsible for them. If the people on Wattpad (and that guy on Facebook) had approached me and said, “I love your story, and I’d like to share it,” I would have been honored and told them, “As long as you give me credit and don’t make changes, sure!” It’s going behind our backs and acting like our pastas are theirs, and they should receive all the credit, that’s infuriating. That shows you what they really care about.

The good news is I found a couple websites in which my stories had been shared with credit. Someone called Lavel W. Nhuza translated “The Binding Mask” and posted it on the Spanish language Creepypasta (http://es.creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/The_binding_Mask), and someone called Midnight Siren posted a reading of “The Melon Head Illustration” on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkWVKtnbpd8). I was tickled pink. I’ve thanked Nhuza, and if someone wants to leave a comment on the melon head video, I’d appreciate it if someone thanked Midnight Siren for me.
