WTF???
"While the central stories of my book and hers are completely different, I wasn't aware of how much I may have internalized Ms. McCafferty's words. I am a huge fan of her work and can honestly say that any phrasing similarities between her works and mine were completely unintentional and unconscious," she said.
Yeah Right!!
Read the last passage in the article and it is so obvious.No person in their sanest sense would be able to unintentionally come up with the exact syntax and even the exact phrases while writing a book.
Such a bloody l'ASS' should be arrested for plagiarism at such a high level and lying blatantly before the media.Instead of arresting her or nipping such fraudsters in the bud,all this issue has highlighted is that the bogus author gets all the much needed publicity to keep going on with her book and movie rights etc.
This trend is not uncommon for Indians though.There have been thousands of obvious acts of plagiarism in the field of music,art,movies and even internet websites(remember the indian version of Million dollar website?).It is natural that this was bound to happen in the field of literature too.
I wish such parasitic influence get nipped in the bud than letting it to a point that they have blossomed enough that there is no point of even framing them.
