(Geez, Mox, we haven't even seen her fancast yet lmao)

(Hasn't gotten far enough to know who Lola is but couldn't resist making a dumb joke)

(Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahaha–we haven't seen the last of Lola. Or her squadron of assholes.)

(mmhmm. They do all go to the same school.)
(your brackets are not working like proper parentheses, bruh)

(poor lola.)
(actually funny story Lola is based off of my first girlfriend–Layla–who was a monster and introduced me to my second awful girlfriend Amber….)
(Fun times)

("Do you want me to kill that guy for you?")

(Lol nah. I've long since moved on.)

(Lola is the name of my grandparents' basset hound so I keep doing a double take when I see her name lol)

(whoop–)

(Eris you better get this published when you're finally done with this. Then Imma pre-order this so I can re-read from start to finish whenever I want. I have to say, this is one of my favorite stories!)

(pauses in writing next chapter to cry tears of joy)

(i've told so many of my friends about this amazing story tho and i'm just like "it's not published yet" and they're always disappointed cuz they want this as a book!! watch me brag to people like yeah i read that before it was published)

(I know right?? I've already made a document where I've essentially copy and pasted the entire story (made sure to give credit to eris, of course) so i can share this amazing story with my friends! already have two of them reading it right now, and they're really invested in it! so great job eris!)

(You've….copied and pasted my story…? Without asking me?)

(Alarm bells)

(can you please use the proper parentheses?)

(eek, sorry! but i did give credit. if you'd like me to take it down, i can)
(sorry again…)

(I'm just trying to follow now– You copied, pasted and posted my story….without my permission.)
(It's not about credit—because you can say that you gave it, but how am I supposed to know for sure?)
(I am not trying to mean, but I am really upset about this. I've trusted the people on this site with something I have been working on for ages and something that I do plan on publishing eventually. To know that it's been passed around without me knowing is….rough…and makes me scared to post more.)

(Sorry… I really do understand. It's only been shared with two friends. I'm not quite sure what to do at this point. I'm open to any and all suggestions, and I'm open to deleting the document as well. I can even give you a shared link, if you wanted to see as well. I feel really bad about this, and I want to make it up to you or something.)

(Thank you Izzy for your easy compliance.)

(Why don’t you make that link public and post it here.)

(I know it wasn't meant in a bad way, but you–as a fellow writer–have to understand why I'm kinda paranoid about this now. I appreciate that you want to make this right. I think you should make use of Dom's suggestion and make the link public and post it here, but I still would like you to inform your friends that they need to read it here on notebook and delete what you have copied and pasted.)

(Yeah, of course. No problem Dom! And yeah, I will!)

(Also, just so you know Izzy, your friends can read it on notebook without an account)

(I'm glad that this got resolved well!)

(Please note that I made this on a school account so if anyone happens to find out my real name, according to Google, who owns the document, please don't share it with anyone. But here's the link: shortened version of the link
