I like writing systems...I've got many that I've discarded already,
including a linear system (my first), an Arabesque script (which worked,
but didn't really suit the conculture) and a rock chipping version of the
linear script.

The writing systems that are actually used are a rather geometric one,
which doesn't really *look* too good, but works, and my favourite, a script
that looks like parchment writing with exaggerated ascenders and descenders.

I also like generating nice sounding words, especially those that are
vaguely onomatopoeic (eg "dodorì" to shake).

Grammar I don't mind but it's not as exciting :P
