Comic idea
11 years ago
I woke up the other morning, and this idea popped straight into my head: a furry comic strip called 'Switch', based around a little catgirl growing up in a world where humans are still adapting to the idea of furries living amongst them. She is the progeny of a human male and a feline female. The story would mainly deal with her interacting with neighbourhood children, starting school, etc.
The first strip was just there in my head, fully formed:
A little girl lying in long grass, with a book obscuring her face. She looks totally normal from what we can see. The last day of summer: soft breeze, butterfly flits past. We hear a voice call, 'Switch!' and her eyes fly open. They have slitted pupils. She sits up and calls back. Now we see her large, pointed ears prick up, and her tail sticking out.

I just wouldn't have time - or skill - to draw it.
I might have a stab at writing more of it, though. The basic idea is kind of Calvin & Hobbes meets To Kill A Mockingbird.
