Blues music assumes borrowing, even outright theft. Compare Bo Diddley's I'm a Man with Muddy Water's Mannish Boy with George Thorogood's Bad to the Bone.
As for writing fiction, in a world more keen on copyrights, I offer An Author's Guide to Stealing from the Books You Love. I can admit to stealing many ideas from Raintree County.

What a mess of things! Journals from 2010 and onward until today (still not got all the old ones on - yet). Stuff that just interests me - writing, books, music, politics. Yes, another old white guy shooting his mouth off - but trying to show what he has learned and hoping it can be fun for you. Enjoy. Learn. It is all your choice how to use this blog, but it is meant to have a use. The day we stop learning is the day we die.
