Okay, so,

I haven't updated this in forever but I'm still around and I still LOVE to RP.

I've had a dream for a while now, burning bright in my heart. I want to make a shop inspired by all those breedable/changing pets shops where you birth or adopt a baby to raise.

The GMFC is my main, and shining, inspiration (Seriously, I love that place), but the other shops that inspire me are The Cabbage Patch, The Curio Shop, and I forget the names of the other ones but there was this one place where you adopted a child that was based off an animal and they get dragons to raise and bond with.

And another clinic where you always had twins! I'm so sad that all these places are closed. No, I'm devastated - Absolutely! So as soon as I finish my children's novel, I am gonna dedicate myself to making this dream shop here on Gaia. I've wanted to for YEARS now. I just have to finish this bloody novel! Argh. You think you can procrastinate? I've been working on it since I was 12 and a half and I'm now 31 years old.

I'm not going to copy all those shops completely. No, I'm gonna be creative and put my own twist on it. It IS going to be a fertility clinic/doctor clinic and attached maternity hospital but it's going to take inspiration from all these different places and sort of blend them together into something different. Like an artist using references to make a unique drawing. It's not going to be set in Gaia. That's important because I don't want to fully copy GMFC. So it'd have its own world.

Essentially it would work the same as most clinics and that is to get people's characters pregnant (through an appointment) and then do art of the expectant parents and then each life stage of their baby as they complete role play goals.

But there's so much more to it than that. And of course, payment and things to work out. It's just a dream that I'm passionate about and I hope I can make it come true some day soon. It might start out tiny, without much interest. But I'm sure I can make it grow and blossom. It's one of my fondest dreams. It'd be a long term project.

Truly, I wish I was a good enough artist to do art for people for free because knowing how happy it makes other people would make me so happy. ^_^ I don't know if I'm too impatient to practice drawing until I'm good. But it doesn't hurt to try and improve.
