Artists and Writers Plagiarized...

If you see this book! Don't buy it! Instead please go the this link and follow the instructions there. Plagiarism abounds, this we all are pretty well aware of. But once in a while you come across an example that literally takes your breath away. Darren Di Lieto, founder of The Little Chimp Society, a well known art blog has been a recent victim.

He has spent the last 3 years building up the site to it's current status as a great artist/illustrators advocate and resource. In a fraction of that time a publisher in Hong Kong called Great Creativity organization has plagiarized practically all of that hard work (not to mention the actual work of the artists and writers contributing to the blog), and published a book which is available online and in bookstores at the price of 42 euros!

He goes into more detail on his personal blog at the link mentioned above, please do visit and be amazed at the audacity of this company. I know I was. And please, let's do what we can to help by spreading the word.
