About a month ago another writer e-mailed me saying she liked my website and was inspired by it. We exchanged a few e-mails and that was that.
A few days ago I saw that she had just created her own website, made up a mock interview (based on my real one) and used, verbatim. some of the same expressions I had used in mine. The wording is EXACTLY the same, so this can't be a coincidence.
I e-mailed her asking that she change the wording but she is ignoring me. True, this isn't the end of the world, but I am annoyed by how she blatantly stole my lines. You'd think that a writer could write her own words.
My question is, what to do about this? I am sure she broke some copyright law but I don't want to be litigious. I just want her to realize that what she did is not legal, not nice, and certainly not cool.
