Okay, this will come across as probably being very silly, but here it goes...
I've written children stories ever since I was in 6th grade. I used to just play around with stories and when an idea would pop in my head, I would write it down and go back to it every once in awhile and add more parts of a story to it.
Well, just recently I was remembering one of those stories. Here's the problem..I don't know if it was actually one of my ideas as a kid or if it was an actual book I read as a kid. I used to read about 100 books a year, so I could have easily confused it with that.
As I was thinking of the idea, I thought "hey, that's really good." But maybe it's good because it's already been published! So I did a search on google and got nothing. I did a search on Amazon because I know a lot of my favorite books as a child still appear and are still in circulation (i'm not THAT old!) And again, I came up with zilch.
Do you think it's safe to assume that the idea I'm thinking of is my own?
*sigh*
