Plots have been recycled ever since stories have been told, reusing themes like sacrificial death, the poor becoming rich, the ugly becoming beautiful, and other archetypes.

How do you avoid making it seem like fanfiction or a warmed-over version of something that’s already been done?

I took a walk around my home this morning. Mini Iris ready to bloom… I am so looking forward to spring. Not so much our time change in two weeks though –
