i feel like such an idiot....

ive written this book called "Remembering You" (some of u may hav heard of it) and i just feel like a total idiot for writin it. the book is sorta like the outsiders by S.E. Hinton (heard of that?) and....gggggggggggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, idk what to do!!!!!!! im scared to send it in cuz i mite be accused of plagerism или something. so, im preparing for the argument. ive come up with things i would say if i hav to fight. like, my very famous line: "Hinton owns the outsiders but she doesnt own the idea of writin about social class rivalries." good rite? which means i can write bout it too. then ive come up with things in common and not in common:
similarities:
-greasers+rich kids
-murder
-main character is a guy

differences:
-theres a main female character
-love story
-events r different

when u read the story, in the beginning, it sorta sounds lke the outsiders. but as u keep readin it it starts to sound completely different. im just so apprehensive. i need a couple soothing words. got any?

i just needed to vent. REALLY bad....

Honestly, I think you'll be fine. They aren't going to accuse Ты of plagiarism because your story is slightly similar to another. Send the story in, if they think its too much like Outsiders, they'll tell you, they aren't going to do anything super drastic because of some small similarities.

Just send it in. If they think it's like the Outsiders, they'll tell you, but honestly, they won't accuse Ты of plagiarism unless Ты copied the words straight out of the Outsiders. Which I'm sure Ты did not. So...just send it in. или Опубликовать it on the Статьи in the True Writers club on Fanpop. We give excellent comments. Just remember, to be a top-of-the-notch writer, Ты have to accept a lot of rejection.
