Because I wrote a book called *Steal Like an Artist*, some people think I’m really interested in plagiarism. Actually, I’m much more interested in *forgery*.
“Plagiarism is the flip side of forgery,” wrote Andrew Potter in *The Authenticity Hoax*. “Forgers pass off their own work as that of someone else, while plagiarists pass off the work of others as their own.”
In other words: Plagiarism is taking credit for someone else’s work. Forgery is giving someone else credit for work you create.
The difference is you *doing the work*.

Text from the image:
ur still an artist if u don’t release ur work.
ur still a writer if u don’t publish a piece.
art is still art even in private.
