Not even trying to be mean here, just genuinely curious.
Does it count as plagiarism if you see this one tiny section from another book, that they didn’t even emphasise on, and you decide to use that one sentence and turn it into a whole story, still kinda changing the plot and characters here and there?
Please let me know what you think as it depends on whether I can write this story or not. I really like the idea of it, it’s just I’ll feel bad if I feel like I’m plagiarising it. Thank you and have a noice day
