No. Ideas/concepts do not qualify for copyright protection only the physical expression of those ideas are covered. This is from the US Copyright Office FAQ (see link below) "Copyright does not protect ideas, concepts, systems, or methods of doing something.

It depends on whether you have the right or not. If you control the copyright to something (i.e., you drew/painted/wrote it), you have the exclusive right to copy it or authorize others to do so. If you do not control the copyright, you need an exemption in the law or permission from the copyright holder.

No, it should not. If you wrote something, you own the copyright on it. All you need in order to assert that copyright is proof that you wrote something.
