What people usually do:
On their account somewhere else put some form of proof. Like on that original medium article add something in the about the author section https://medium.com/@luislizamabook
Even if it's temporary we know you have access to the account and that seems to prove you are the author of the article.
I will remove all my downvotes ... however either source the images or let us know you are also the artist. If you are the artist I will for sure be UPVOTING because you have skills. If you are not the artist let it be known (hopefully you have permission)
EDIT: seems this art may be from the Lord of the Rings?
Ill source the images, that is actually my bad and my ignorance and I will do so immediately. However, I still don't know how the damage from me being accused as a plagiarizer is going to be repaired? I lost a lot of money all beacuse of ASSUMPTIONS. Accused of stealing my own work?
It is the role of the person posting to clarify this up front... you paying to make it go trending only puts a spotlight on you.
You used content that existed elsewhere on the internet it needed to be clarified that you are the same person. There is no bad assumption on their part just lack of documentation.
However i will say that someone who downvotes you for plagarism and doesn't follow up when you document your source or ownership should be equally guilty of wrong doing. Or they're just lazy downvoters.
I've helped contact a few people you should contact a few others. They should be responsible for cleaning up their downvotes once you've clarified your position.
okay how can I contact you
