Re: (1) I'm Back!!! (2) Thank You All!! (3) I Need Your Help!

David J. Peterson comunu:

>1.) Are there any books we could use?  I can think of parts of many
books that'd be helpful to photocopy, but there's no real conlang
textbook (yet).


I would recommend assembling The Virtual Conlang Textbook, which would
be a table of contents with virtual chapters, where the chapters were
links to good web articles.  Many of the authors would probably consent
to have their sites printed and bound in a textbook for a single
classroom (but you'd need to contact each to ask).

Suggestions to get you started:
- Introduction - Zompist.com's Language Construction Kit
- Rick Morneau's Language Essays
- Some of Rick Harrison's articles
- CONLANG FAQ

I think all the content you need has been published on the Web by now --
it just hasn't been intregated into a single volume.

Best regards,

Jeffrey
