just for fun I've been learning #dovahzul, and in particular I've been exploring the idea of thu'um shouts as a form of mini-poetry. there's a pretty consistent structure to them, and it's a nice little exercise to pick out three-word sets that convey meaning in that format.

English: humbug, n., "something designed to deceive and mislead; nonsense, drivel."
Cebuano: hambúg, n. "big talk, most often not quite true."

#WritersCoffeeClub - 19 Mar. Do you need to finish a work before starting another? Why (or why not)?
:: laughs maniacally :: Finish a project before starting another? You're funny.
I have adhd so I'm not able to focus on just one project. I rotate through each.
Right now my hyperfixation is on my #conlang but with that done, I'll rotate to one of my other projects. lol #writingcommunity #indieauthor
