Copyrighted novel ideas?
I'm writing a novel for children and I have a copyright concern. And it's common knowledge that there is no original novel idea.
i was wondering what copyright covered.
Does it copyright ideas, characters, themes and stuff? Names, locations, and concepts?
Could someone please help explain it because I can't understand it.
Thank you!

Copyright does NOT protect ideas. Copyright protects works of authorship, such as writings, music, and works of art that have been tangibly expressed.
