Stealing the Plot?
Question for you all. Putting outright plagiarism aside, do you think it's acceptable to "steal the plot." I've been reading a book on the subject, along with a few others on plotting because that's a big weak point for me. A straight forward linear story I'm okay with but the twists and turns and interweaving of a complex plot is a struggle.
Right now I've been reading a short story I really like and it occurred to me that the plot would make a great story for Literotica. So do you think it's acceptable to lift a plot and reuse it, where everything but the basic plot outline is your own?
Be interested to know what you all think on that one.
