John, you're under arrest.

Oh, no.

Don't do it.

I'm an OGoki story time podcast host. I don't care. I'm making sure that you stay here for the next two minutes. All right, I'll be detained for the two more minutes before we get into this episode. Yeah, we got some ads coming up. So stick around. Think around. This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human.

My sister-in-law stole my written book and made millions.

Oh, that should be your money.

I 24 female write as a hobby and I like sharing my short stories with my small following.

I do want to publish one day, but I want to make it perfect first, since it's not edited yet. The unfinished book we're talking about came from an idea

that I started to build when I was in middle school. I just finished it last year, but because of the

vid, I was forced to put that project aside to ensure steady employment with my day job. By the way, this comes from stolen ideas. If you want to submit your own stories, go to the R-slash OK Storytime subreddit. I'm Carly. I'm Angie. And we're here to give good advice, goofily, but we don't have all the answers. We only know what we would do, so let us know what you would do in the comments.

And OP says, my brother and sister-in-law came to visit me to introduce their baby daughter about six months ago. Sister-in-law just thrust her baby into my arms, even though I lack even the barest

bathroom to pump front airbag milk.

They left later, and I didn't think anything of it until recently when I was told sister-in-law

had published a book, and it had been a while since she published.

Self-publishing is not as time-consuming as traditional publishing. I don't doubt my sister-in-law's

intelligence because she is a smart woman, but I've always heard how she dislikes books because

they're boring and drag on. I wanted to show my support and bought a copy,

only to realize it's way too similar to mine. I compared it to my copy of unpublished work.

It's obvious it's been edited and proofread for fluidity and clarity. I was angry, and I admit I overreacted by confronting her

over the phone. She said my screaming was upsetting her and hung up on me. It was a back-and-forth

battle with phone numbers to get the truth. By this time, my parents and her parents were involved.
