Posting someone else's story

[mxyzptlk]

I once read and copied a great serial killer story based on true events. I would love to share it and post it, see if anyone else appreciates it like me. Is it OK to post someone else's work?

I would think so, as long as the author is credited as such. Unless the original author copyrighted the work. Even then, you could ask his permission.
