Every now and then as a #conlanger you'll encounter people that act really spiteful of creating a fantasy language, which so many weirdly seem to really love fantasy fiction.

So many of my stuff has been artificially delayed by people whom have way to much influence deciding what gets publishedm based on people my stuff isn't intended for.

Finally got around to reading David J. Peterson’s ‘The Art of Language Invention’, and found a ton of inspiration for my next conlanging project.

As a #conlanger visiting Oxford today, I made sure I went to see #Tolkien's favourite pub.

There is always a looming fear of ridicule because of misused terminology or totally misunderstood concepts in my conlang documentation, I can feel it. I began to develop an unhealthy obsession with delving into so much theoretical linguistics articles until I gave up before I could write a single sentence with a sciency nuanced word in it.

#conlangs and #conlanger alike, how do you overcome with such fear?

I should really up my #conlang fu this month. o.o

A little bit more about me.

I’m fascinated by #linguistics
I’m a #conlanger so far I’ve really only created one language. Been working on it for almost four years. My toots will be in English, Spanish, and Esperanto.

I’m a #composer of #newmusic former #saxophonist mediocre #pianist and bad #cellist

I love #poetry I used to write it but decided to give it up and focus my creative energy on my music and visual art.

I love to #cook especially the #cajun food I grew up on.

Later, tooters.

Thinking of doing #lexember posts here on Mastodon instead of twitter this year. Any #conlanger s out there? #worldbuilding #conlang #fantasy #writing

Hi all!
I'm trying to gather people for a list on https://communitywiki.org/trunk about #conlanging. That list means that anyone who is interested in conlanging can see your account on that list as an account recommended to follow. (There already exists a list for Esperanto specifically, but no list for conlanging in general.)
If you are interested, please let me know! If you are not, please boost instead.
Thanks! 😊
