For anyone who has had this question come up, I want to clear this before an argument begins. Tuanh's story "Pleasure Principle" is not my story "The Pleasure Principle" which I wrote several months ago and is also posted on this site. While they are based upon the same Freudian concept, they are, indeed, very different stories. I have read this story after a reader let me know of the concern and I wanted to make this clear. Tuanh hasn't copied my story and claimed it, it is only that the title is almost exactly the same as my story also posted on this site.

Hope that I caught this in time. Love you all for being so concerned and protective. Also, please read Tuanh's story and give it the recognition it is due.

Be well,
Ivy

Thank you, Miss OnyxIvyStone.

I was only slightly put off that someone would accuse me of such a thing, but I knew that nothing truly harmful would come of it as it was indeed a false claim. Your concern is very thoughtful. Thank you for taking the time to post this message.

I do quite enjoy your works, so it was almost a pleasure to have someone accuse me of stealing it... (sort of.... )

Thank you Ivy.

I had informed the original accuser that she needs to have adequate proof before making a claim like that as it can be very damaging, and the last thing i wanted was a lynch mob going after Tuanh for it. I'm very glad you made a public acknowledgement of it.

and for the record, i enjoyed both yours and Tuanh's pleasure principles

When I saw the title in the feed it definitely quirked an eyebrow but all it takes is a very quick read to see that Tuanh's "Pleasure Principle" is completely original in its own right.

Enjoy the read
