It's partly your...What a kind gesture, John!!!<br /><br />It's partly your thoughtful commentary along with Renee's insights that brought me back here today (after a year's absence). <br /><br />Lately, I've found myself wondering what motivates me to do the same---express in some tangible way my appreciation for women in my life I work with that I have, or at least believe I have no designs on. (I'm single and heterosexual.) <br /><br />My answer? Lonelinesss. It's actually not something to fear or try to evade but to accept and embrace.<br /><br />I too find Renee's blog comments so refreshing in their honesty and inquisitiveness---that I can fully appreciate the level of platonic intimacy that would motivate you to do what you've done--I attribute no selfish motivation on your part. <br /><br />It's such a stark contrast from the acerbic commentary so pervasive online.

That is how we have genres. Sure everybody know Harry Potter. But one year before that was released, Vertigo Comics (a division of DC Comics) brought out a series that had a similar premise called Books of Magic. The story involves a kid, from England, with glasses and dark hair, has just found out that he has magical abilities. Despite similarities, the series went off in a different direction than Harry Potter. Books of magic are comics aimed at more mature audiences and takes place in the DC universe while Harry Potter is aimed at younger audiences.<br /><br /> http://www.amazon.com/The-Books-Magic-Neil-Gaiman/dp/1401246869<br /><br />When it comes to creative medias, you have to be careful not to be to much similar to another ones creativity. Many people have tried to sue others on products they claim are practically copies of others work.johnsuttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04548989640535234663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2949964747410221992.post-67348494950664693622015-08-24T09:13:36.747-07:002015-08-24T09:13:36.747-07:00You can look at it in one way though.

You may not make money off you device, But you did not have to spend thousand of dollars on something that works the same you made yourself. <br /><br />So, if you are serious on making your own health care business you just save money on set up. Less to draw from a business loan.<br /><br />On the other hand, some people make look at you odd for using makeshift equipment in a official business that is not what they expect a professional would have. <br />"You made that out of a vacumn cleaner? Why don't you get a real device for that?"<br /><br />You know that sort of reaction.<br /> <br />So you may have to dress it up a bit to make it more "official" despite the same effectiveness. johnsuttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04548989640535234663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2949964747410221992.post-29715061181713548872015-08-24T01:15:26.570-07:002015-08-24T01:15:26.570-07:00and, the toughest part might not even be the idea/...and, the toughest part might not even be the idea/invention itself but going through all the hard work to patent and market the idea/product.

My father swears up and down he came up with the idea for a movie that eventually came out. He did not write it down, he just thought about it.
