Plagiarist Rant

So one of the least deserving authors ever received her second children’s book award according to the Today show this morning.

This author (not saying names though I’m sure you can figure it out by the end of my rant) has stolen most of her material (excepting one sparkly bit) from Annette Curtis Klause (in my personal opinion of course). I’m sure there are other authors that are lesser known that this plagiarist is stealing from.

I wonder if the authors won’t say anything because of the Rowling scandal years ago when an author showed her book (consisting of wizards, muggles, owl carriers, etc) and claimed Rowling stole from her. The protesting author lost their case (obviously since J.K. is still writing) so it might scare any other smaller writer from calling a popular writer a plagiarist.
