Hello
This is the third time I have been forced to try and tell my story.
I am going to tell you that I am homeless and feeling pretty low. I am not going to type all I’ve typed in the last 3 hours. I will go directly to my reason for asking other people for help.
About a year and a half ago…I created what I believe to be something that could possibly be as big as The Smurfs.
I started looking online for somethings that are popular and trendy that I could maybe make a little money from.
Everywhere I looked, it was all about Gnomes. Everybody loves the Gnomes. Woman crowded the internet with how they made their Gnomes.
I started thinking of how I could create something that nobody else had created before. What I came up with sent me into a crafting frenzy. I created a miniature Gnome that is small, so small that I’ve created keychains and frigerator magnets.
I call them “The Gnomies”. They are very small and super cute. One is a girl and one is a boy. The features of a Gnome, they have no eyes, very big noses, and a beard or braided locs. They are made from baby socks….they can get pretty small. I think the idea of Gnomes being so small and so cute, woman and men, boys and girls of all ages would adore the little creatures and they could go worldwide. The only thing is….I don’t have a place to create the Gnomies and keep them looking and being brand new.
I called an agent from a company that helps people launch their ideas for inventions and creations. He was excited to possibly move forward with getting my creations researched, patented, and marketed for possible mass production. I was overwhelmed with the thoughts. I decided to move forward with the agent and getting this project launched.
I was so confident in the rise of “The Gnomies” I borrowed the $600 it cost to see about a possible patent. It took about 5 weeks to learn that I was denied a patent.
I have since been homeless…it was in 2021 that I was evicted from my house and got the denial of the patent. I spent money I borrowed to have the research done.
I was informed by the agent that trying to have an invention or creation marketed and launched would most likely cost up $25, 000. There is no way for me to afford that kind of money…especially being homeless and a disability case pending and no money. I know that my creations would be a big hit. If I had a place to create them and the money to get this project off the ground. It would save me from this life of feeling like a street rat and doing something that would make a good life for me and my other half. To live out our days with no more headache of where we can stay and how we will survive everyday. It would be the best gift in the world to me to be able to never worry about those things anymore. Please, give me boost in the right direction….help us!
We could never thank you enough…..I can promise that I will pay it forward with success of ” The Gnomies”
