My Jaw Dropped... More Calous Plagiarism
Trying to keep abreast of my friend Rachel Nunes' battle against plagiarism, I checked back on Mr. John Doppler's blog, which I referenced below. I was shocked to find out that the plagiarist had not only stolen from Rachel, but of all people, she had also stolen from a war veteran. A veteran, of all people! Glory be! As I mentioned in the title, my jaw dropped.
The plagiarist's first "book" was stolen from the real life experiences of Sgt. Chase Weston, who was wounded in combat, in Iraq. Please visit Mr. Doppler's blog here to read more about it.
My brother served in Iraq, and if any of his personal stories were stolen to line someone's pockets, I would be furious. But like Mr. Doppler said, it is important to exercise restraint, and remember that justice is in the hands of the court. Not us.

Hello, I am the author of The King's Heir, and The Birthright, both published by Cedar Fort. They are based on stories from the Book of Mormon, and both have similar characters in them, though either one could stand alone as its own book. The King's Heir, while written after The Birthright, happens first chronologically, and takes place during the time of Alma the Younger. In fact, the story opens just a few days before his conversion. It follows the lives of Rebekah and Sarah, cousins and best friends, and the struggles they go through to find true love. The Birthright takes place during the war near to the end of the book of Alma when Amalickiah and his brother Ammoron are wreaking havoc, and Captain Moroni and his comrades have to stop them. It follows Miriam, a young lady who has both Nephite and Lamanite blood in her, who has to find her way in the world, and discover her own hidden strength.
