re: your most recent update-- parallel discover/simultaneous invention (and like half a dozen variations) exists as a term for a reason!
Don't let the copying accusations get you down. As someone with a close eye on the independent artist sphere I see the same ideas pop up simultaneously all the time. I've even been accused of copying myself, despite releasing my design first? 😅 Creators and their fans can definitely be a little (or a lot) overzealous at times.
(Not to mention ita bags are extremely common/popular, and so are plush backpacks right now. To combine the two seems like a natural evolution of both ideas to me.)
All of that to say, its a real shame to see one small business spreading misinformation about another when there's room for all of us here. I guarantee you the folks that feel that way though (that you're copying) are the tiniest minority though, and it won't impact your campaign or business in any measurable way ☺️ You got this! And good luck with your launch. Can't wait to see the dragon sample myself!
