Author's Note - Someone Plagiarized the Dungeon's Path
Added 2020-08-11 20:48:22 +0000 UTCEDIT: The plagiarized book has been taken down.
So you've probably heard of books on places like here and RR being Plagurized and sold on Amazon? Well guess who just got hit. There is someone selling Dungeon's Path on Amazon under the title Dungeon Tutorial and the only change they have made is to the Main Characters name. I put in my dispute so thats a thing. I have to wonder if they've managed to sell any. I do what editing I can but it is not publishing quality. Really sucks that this can happen but not much you can do except swat them down whenever they pop up.
Anyway I would like to thank oxnil over on RR for pointing this out to me.
Oh, and I guess I should note that the only places I have posted the story and allow it to exist are here on my Patreon, over on RoyalRoad, and on Scribblehub.
