Writers Against Plagiarism
I wanted to bring this matter to people's attention, seeing as we have quite a few writers here in the Heroscape community. Usually, I'm pretty up-to-date in all (or rather most) literary scams out there because I am trying to get published...I for one do not want to get duped. Nevertheless, this particular scam, despite being around for a year, was just brought to my attention through SFWA, and it is my intention to forward the information on to others who may not have the time to do the research themselves. This particular scam involves plagiarism--big time! What's more is that unknown writers are targeted, even more so than known authors. So: a word of warning to all...
The full story is here. |

Boyer's a dirtbag, but he's so low-level that no one bothers with suing him. That's why this movement to get him prosecuted through the attorney general's office of his home state is so important. Here's a blog that keeps tabs on him:

Re: Writers Against Plagiarism
New news on this front: apparently Boyer has plaigerized Stephen King now, as well. I Googled for news on this, and this came up (December 7).
He's in trouble now... http://shocklinesforum.yuku.com/topi...1#.TuJzuWDlBvk Last edited by Billtrumpet25; December 9th, 2011 at 04:47 PM. |

Re: Writers Against Plagiarism
It's wierd -- Boyer has gone nearly 3 months without drawing attention to himself. Though from what I hear, that's soon to change. More info to come.
