Grammarly Plagiarism Check
I use Grammarly's plagiarism check because I want to see where my work has been published, quoted, or used without my permission.
As an author and blogger I not only want to keep track of what I'm posting so I don't use something I shouldn't but I also want to know where my writing has ended up. I don't always get notifications when my work has been reviewed, mentioned, or reprinted so it's nice to be able to easily look things up.
It's also a great tool for finding sites that have displayed your work without permission.
Check it out-
"Plagiarism Detection & Citations- Grammarly finds unoriginal text before it gets you into trouble by checking for plagiarism against a database of over 8 billion web pages. Grammarly not only brings borrowed texts to light, but also suggests citations."
"Grammarly catches plagiarism—before you get caught!
With online resources making it easier than ever to copy and paste text, plagiarism is on the rise in educational institutions. From middle school teachers to college professors, educators are cracking down on plagiarized text. Turning in papers with plagiarized content can result in failing grades and even expulsion, even if the mistake was unintentional.
Grammarly’s grammar and plagiarism checker crosschecks your text against our huge database of web pages, detecting plagiarized passages before they get you into trouble. By comparing your work to billions of web pages, Grammarly’s software highlights the sections that have been previously published elsewhere. You can then fix the issue by either deleting the plagiarized text, paraphrasing it, or citing it as a quotation. Not sure how to cite your sources? Don’t worry; Grammarly’s grammar and plagiarism checker has you covered."
I like the possibilties this gives an author- a little bit of reversal from the intended usage but you can check your text- your writing and see where it has ended up. Just think- you can put in a poem, a short story, a blog post, a tutorial, a section of your book- and you can see where it's been published.
Wouldn't you like to keep your blog safe, from both posting content you shouldn't and for checking to see where your content has ended up?

FALLING IN LOVE WITH A DRAGON: Guest Blog and Giveaway with Eden Ashe
\
FALLING IN LOVE WITH A DRAGON
Shelby Kincade never thought of herself as being real, and
that was one of those things that surprised me the further into The Dragon’s
Heart I got. She’s a world-class, world-famous actress, America’s Girl Next
Door, and arguably the most famous woman in the world.
But half way through writing her story, while she was deep
in conversation with Daniel, she locked up and started to panic. It intrigued
me, but it wasn’t until I got to the big, bad danger scene toward the end that
I realized just how lost she had been before Daniel. You see, she was used to
playing a character, any character. And because she started acting out of a
desperation to fit in somewhere, she
used those characters to teach her how to be. How to be sweet, and friendly,
and popular…
Basically, she identified herself through those roles.
Playing a character made sense to her. It was easy, she knew the rules, knew
how to play that part.
And then she met Daniel Ashborne, the king of the dragons,
and her entire life was turned upside down. Despite Shelby’s inability to see
herself as anything beyond a character, Daniel innately saw her. In fact, it’s
one of my favorite things about Daniel. He takes grumpy, moody, and silent to
new, unbelievably irritating levels, but he always knew exactly how to draw out
the Shelby only he seemed to see inside of her.
He let her take care of him. He let her fight with him. She
taught him how to play, and she gave him a reason to smile for the first time
in—literally—decades. Little by little, page by page, she showed her strength,
her courage, her (as Daniel loves to call it) fierce hell-cat temper.
But what really, really sold me on Shelby as Daniel’s
perfect heroine was early on in the story. The last time they had seen each
other had been the year before. After one hot, hot night together, someone breaks into her house and tries to kill
him, destroying her career in the process. So it was understandable that the
first time she sees him again, after he kidnapped her from the hospital where
she’d been recovering from a gunshot wound, she’s wary of him and convinced
he’s a madman. It didn’t matter how much she’d liked him once. It didn’t matter
that his friend was convinced she was Daniel’s mate. He was a lunatic, that was
all there was to it. And yet…she had this fierce, undeniable urge to protect
him.
In the end, it was Shelby’s devotion to Daniel, her need to
see him protected and taken care of, that sealed her fate as a dragon mate.
Because like Daniel says at one point in the story, dragons can be overbearing
and possessive as hell, and it takes a hell of woman to mate to them until the
end of time.
Besides, according to Shelby, who wouldn’t fall in love with
this face?

Shelby Kincade’s life and movie career were nearly destroyed when Daniel vanished a year ago. Now he’s back, claiming they have been accidentally mated. Getting over him once was hard enough, but she must choose either the life of her dreams or the man she can’t live without. With peace finally on the horizon between the dragon-shifters and the Hunters, an assassination attempt on the dragon king and his mate shatters everything. Tensions rebuild as Daniel and his loyal team of shifters try to discover who put out the hit. Enemy and ally lines are crossed, but in the end--after the battle ash has settled--no one could have foreseen who has plotted for their own gain.

Marisa Cleveland loves to laugh, hates to cry, and does both often. As a writer, she writes. Every day. If she couldn’t express herself through writing, music, and dance, she would die.

She loves to connect with writers and readers through social media.
