Okay... It all seems great, but

Why is it called 'My Dinosaur Life'?

You're not alone if you're scratching your head, wondering how dinosaurs fit into a world of interspecies drama and workplace quirks. 'My Dinosaur Life' is about much more than its title suggests. It's a journey of self-discovery, growth, and facing (metaphorical) giant monsters in a drastically changed world.

The title 'My Dinosaur Life' symbolizes the characters' colossal challenges, triumphs, and resilience. In this wild new world, they discover their inner 'dinosaur' – that untamed, powerful force within, ready to take on any odds with fierce determination.

And there's a literal connection, too! The title directly ties into the story as we follow Nyx's adventures as an agent in the GUIP's Dinosaur Division.

HELLO… IT’S ME.

Meet the quirky guy behind this quirky world.

Hi there! I'm Taylor, but you can call me Tay. I'm a neurodivergent web developer in my early 30s known for always mixing some humour and creativity into everything I do. But there's more to me – I have a huge love for animation. It's been my go-to escape and a significant source of creative ideas in my most challenging times.

You might be asking, "What's a web developer doing in the world of animation?" Great question! You see, 'My Dinosaur Life' is the culmination of years filled with daydreams, plotting, and, yes, a fair share of procrastination. As far as I can remember, I've had aspirations to enter the animation industry, and now I'm finally taking my first bold step (woo-hoo me!). Trust me, I know how big of a long shot this is, especially for someone who is a complete outsider from the industry. But hey, there's no harm in trying!

This project is deeply personal to me. It reflects my journey with self-doubt and finding my place in a world that often feels alien. 'My Dinosaur Life' is fundamentally a tale of self-discovery, acceptance, inclusion, and friendship balanced with reflections in a no-preachy way, wrapped in a package of fantastic adventures and humour. It's also a chance to introduce atypical lead characters, positively show them, and resonate with those who, like me, see the world from a slightly different perspective.
