I JUST found out that my COPYRIGHTED work was turned into a Best-Seller by a Hollywood A-List Author/Producer. My work was copyrighted in 2001, at least 4-5 years before he wrote his book. The basis of the story is a dead match for mine. Would the news run with a story like this? I do mean a true A-List celeb here!

contact a lawyer and the copyright people and get advice before doing anything else because if it turns out you're wrong(im not saying you are but just in case) you will need proof and the law and such on your side so that when you approach this persons people you know exactly what you are talking about and you will have it all in front of you so no1 can try and confuse you! good luck! xx

Go to the news. They would love the scandal! And you'd probably get more recognition and a better chance at winning. good luck.

You should contact a lawyer first so the big "A lister" can't cover his or her tracks and find a way to screw you.
