NEW THEORY: PLAGIOPHILIA PART 1
I am developing a new literary theory, concept or genre, whatever you may call it. This I decided to name Plagiophilia or love of plagiarism. This is like the informal manifesto of this:
PLAGIOPHILIA PART 1
Plagiophilia is defined as love for plagiarism. This is a genre, theory or concept which seeks to promote, enhance and make valid the use and development of Plagiarism in literature.
How does it work?
There are many ways to plagiarize and many reasons. Some reasons are:
Lack of talent
Lack of ideas
Lack of time
Nothing to do
Lack of inspiration
Lack of knowledge
Homework/Office work
Desire for instant fame
Others
Ways to plagiarize:
Blatant copying
No proper citation
Adding/Taking off some parts
Mixing several ideas together
Using synonyms to edit the piece
Others
But I propose that Plagiophilia can be a valid and experimental, if not a truly unique concept/genre/theory by doing these things:
Properly giving tribute to the real and original writer
Just borrowing some ideas, not all
Making it completely bizarre
Parody
Imitation
Outward confession of being a plagiarist
Trying to be original by making it unusual
Sucking off other people's brains
Offering sex in exchange for the author's rights and ownership for his/her work
Flirting works so well with me
Others
Samples of real or somehow other forms of plagiarism in real life:
Parody
True plagiarism

No hahahah I am serious about this hahahah no it's a joke but I have done this thing twice or thrice hahahah =P But generally, the whole concept is what I intend to put my life to. I mean, I want it to be my life's magnum opus.
I hope you join. Make your own plagiophile story. Actually you can do an auto-plagiophile story, Just create another version of ur existing work. I am setting up a site for this and I hope more authors will get interested. Please do Miss Kristine. Your flash fiction left me so breathless I simply need more!
John, no offense, but this is not something that I'd like to do. Plagiarism is NEVER VALID, no matter how you spin it. You are right about all the reasons why people rip off others' works -- this, in particular, it glares and it reeks: "Lack of talent"
This is interesting. I recall a case of a teen author nominated for the Leipzig Book Fair prize 2010.To read: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/12/wor...
I've seen this before, Christine. Plus other cases of plagiarism. It's very sad. Because writing well is hard work. Publishing in legitimate venues is hard work. Everything is hard work, because that's the way it is. In most cases, it takes an entire lifetime for authors to be recognized and be nominated for awards. To rip off people and what royalties are due them -- I have a label for it, and it's not printable here. This is very sad.

It's more of a literary exercise really like how you would write a story if you were the writer of your favorite book or short story. Or like I said, you can plagiarize yourself.
Well, not everyone can be convinced to try this but I will try to promote this. I need to solidify my points. =P

Ms. Kristine! Join the Filipino Group please! We need you there! I love you so much and I cannot stop wanting to make others read you too because you have such a wonderful talent. =P
