PLEASE READ THESE FACTS FIRST:

  • Random House sued ME; not the other way around.
  • Random House filed suit to silence the facts I was posting on the web.
  • There has been NO trial on the facts, only the Random House effort to prevent a trial.
  • NO expert testimony was allowed despite three international plagiarism experts who were willing to testif that it existed.
  • The only sworn statements made under penalty of perjury are affidavits from me and my experts, nothing from RH.
  • The judge refused to consider any expert analysis.
  • Despite suing me first, Random House & Sony UNsuccessfully demanded that I pay the $310,000 in legal fees they spent to sue me.
  • Contrary to the Random House spin, I am not alleging plagiarism of general issues, but of several hundred very specific ones.
  • This is not about money. Anything I win goes to charity.

Legal filings and the expert witness reports are HERE

I have a second blog, Writopia
which focuses on Dan Brown's pattern of falsehoods
and embellishment of his personal achievements.

Et Tu, Angels & Demons? + New Blog

You may have noticed that I suspended the blogging about the Random House filing and have disabled comments. Why?

1. Lack of new posts: After going through the rest of Random House's April 22 filing, there is just more of the same. The posts pretty well confirm the distortions, misrepresentations etc. More of the same gets tedious to read and write.

2. Disabled comments: Some enterprising soul found a way to break the software using the comment lines. It brought the entire blog down numerous times.

New posts (with comments) will now move to: http://writopia.blogspot.com where I'll post on the Dan Brown thing as well as other topics. Comments are enabled. If the same people bring down the blog again, at least the blog posts about Random House's misrepresentation and deceit will still be available on this blog.

The first post there will be from an email that points out what the feels could be more plagiarism -- this time in Angels & Demons.

It looks more likely that A&D could become its own separate legal action.
