I finished the very first rough manuscript of my novel. My main character is trapped in a basement for the first 350/500 pages. My publisher loves it and is talking about thos being worth a million bucks.
I have a bas feeling, I feel 'm plagiarizing, but I don't know from what. Inread a lot of stuff when I was beween 12-35 and then stopped.
I had this idea and built on it all the time, but what if I read it in some obscure shitty novel.
What stories do you know that habe the protagonist locked up in solitary for a long time? I already looked at oldboy, ut that's not ny story.

Just remember: all art is imitation.
Unless you're literally copying something, getting inspiration from one or several sources generally won't be deemed to be plagiarism.
