When someone steals your novel...

Ok, steal might be hyperbole, but my second WIP is eerily similar to an upcoming spring release.  Do I think this author stole into my thoughts and notes and took it?  No.  Do I feel robbed?  Yes.  I was very excited about this WIP and I'm sad to let it go.  But believe me I must.

So I've chosen to make lemonade with this one.  A bestselling author is publishing a book with a near identical plot to one of my WIPs, which means I think like a bestselling author (right?).
