A stolen fantasy map, an AI scam, and a workplace that turned hostile over a book. This episode dives into what happens when your creative life collides with the real world.
Maritza shares how a map from The Crystal Lands was passed off as someone else’s handmade work, complete with a Gemini watermark still visible. Then Southern Belle tells the story of what happened after coworkers discovered she had published a book inspired by retail life, leading to gossip, intimidation, false complaints, and attempts to silence her.
Together, Southern Belle and Maritza talk about protecting your work, using disclaimers, documenting plagiarism, navigating toxic workplaces, and knowing when “good enough” just isn’t good enough.
If you’re an indie author, creator with a day job, or anyone worried about being judged for what you create, this episode is for you.
