~Plagiarism and spinning: what’s the difference?~

What is plagiarism?

Stealing someone written and passing it as your own.

Changing the name and places is still plagiarism.  You’re stealing their ideas and passing as your own. Now general knowledge isn’t plagiarism.

Example of Plagiarism~

Steele glanced in the direction Shock was looking. Steele and his men were sitting in a pub called Big Rigg that had heavy wooden tables and a rustic atmosphere. A woman walked toward one of the high tables at the bar where a suited man and a couple were sitting. He recognized the newcomer from the pictures of Craig’s sister that Killer had shown him.

Deuce glanced in the direction Gunny was staring. Deuce and his men sat in an old Route 66 bar, called Big Red’s, decorated in a rustic old west theme complete with heavy wooden tables and a copper bar. A slender young man walked toward the high bar where a suited man sat with a couple–all of their gazes fixed on the young man’s approach. Deuce recognized the newcomer from the pictures of Marcy’s brother that Butcher had shown him. They didn’t do him justice.

This is excellent example of plagiarism. This is a real situation. It was published and the person that plagiarist the story was force to remove it.

YOU’RE GUILTY OF Plagiarism IF YOU COPY SOMEONE ELSE WORK OR CHANGE IT AND MAKE YOURS.
