   It's really unfair and a lie for you to accuse me of knowing about plagiarism involving Dave or anyone. I know nothing of the sort. Just because someone (whom I didn't know) wrote to me accusing Dave of things doesn't mean that it's true and if it is, I have nothing to do with his writing and therefore am not involved. As for aliases, many directors and writers use different names for their film companies. I know one director who has three different names depending on which company he is working for and that doesn't mean he is doing anything illegal. If you have a problem with him, you have no right to make accusations against me. That makes me question your character alot.

   Unfortunately, Judy, you were not only notified of the situation, you were also provided with links to the assembled evidence.
   
   As, for aliases, there are those people who use them to provide different personas, but there also plagiarists such as David Boyer who hide behind them when pirating other people’s works. The difference between these two rationale’s is obvious.

David Boyer's Version:

Further proof that David Boyer committed Consumer Fraud in "Shadow Dolls."

David Boyer put his name on “Shadow Dolls,” and this is false labeling.  David Boyer didn’t write it, he just labels the book as if he did.  In fact, it is a mish-mash of stolen works from other writers.

Below is a further example.  In it, we see that he plagiarized J. Rychwa’s story in “Shadow Dolls,” thereby proving "...  the product he is selling is materially different than what the seller represented it to be."

Under the law, this is Consumer Fraud.

David Boyer - The Patchwork Plagiarist

"Hannibal and Clarice: A Love Untold" is the bonus story included in "Shadow Dolls."

Within the 22 pages of this story, David Boyer plagiarized nine separate pieces of work from eight different authors.

(His victims are two well known and successful musicians and six fan fiction writers who share their writing for love, not profit.)

Boyer is taking his plagiarism to a still lower level by sewing together various parts of other writer’s works into one new work. In the process, he not only plagiarizes their works, but he also destroys the individuality of these writer’s works.  As an example of this, consider the bonus story in “Shadow Dolls” called “Hannibal and Clarice: A Love Untold."  In this short piece, as you will see, he plagiarizes 8 separate writers in his attempt to make it appear that the new “creation” is his own.
