How to Begin?

[JohnA]

Hi all,

I am a lawyer/wannabe toy designer who hopes that my ambition and creativity have a higher use than document review and contract provision creation. I'd like to learn as much as possible about inventing toys from people who know and I'd be happy to hear about circumstances incidental to toy creation (e.g., success/failure rates, expected revenue upon success) all that good stuff.

So, if anyone feels comfortable sharing their experience or directing me to resources they found helpful, I'd be very happy to hear it and it would help much.

Best,
John
