Just to cut in here before it becomes a thing but it's a bit of both. Because we live in a society, a community, etc there will never be a story that is entirely, down to the bones, original. BUT there will be aspects that are original b/c you wrote it & no one else did, it's your voice.
i dont want to make it sound like nothing in this world is original, but at the same time, it kind of is true. alexander g. bell did not come up with the telephone but he did make it. and sometimes, we really just reinvent things that already exist. like mechanical pens!
