A Tale of Theft and A Question

Okay, I haven't updated in a while. This is because nothing very interesting has happened. . . until tonight.

So a while back I wrote to a bunch of different blogs for guest posting opportunities. Only one wrote back. Let's call the blog owner Bert.

In the original submission page I wrote three ideas, one in particular that I really loved and I hadn't seen done before. Bert seemed to like it too. He asked that I write it. So I spent 8 hours toiling over a hot computer and created one of my best pieces.

I sent it. And waited for a month. I just recently got a response. . .

Bert said I needed to rewrite the entire article since it is too similar to an article he already posted on the site. A post from way after I originally sent the idea. Mind, I have never seen this idea before on any other website.

Is it just me or was my mind robbed? What should I do?

Hi Rose,
I believe he stole your idea! So many crazy people. Sorry that happened to you, but I think I would not have anymore contact with that person!
Have a great weekend,
Donna

Thats a hard one. Seems awful coincidental...

When was Bert’s article posted? If you submitted it a month ago and his came out 2 weeks ago, I’d be pretty sure he “borrowed it”.

I submitted the idea a month before he posted his article.
