I have written a book and just found that the title of the book has the name as another but they are both very different books altogether. Can I still use my book title or would I be breaking a copyright law and get sued? If you need the book names I can send that later. Also, if it is copyrighted by the author and I can’t use it, can I ask the author’s permission to use the name? Help.
Many thanks,
