Sally wanted to know how we came create Conlangs.

I had started with this fascination way before I knew anyone else had
attempted it. Then, at the age of fourteen (in 1966) I came across Esperanto.
I fell in love with the language and it became a major focus of mine for many
years. Meanwhile I continued to try creating my own language(s) without
success. This went on for years (till 1997) when I came across the list and
Tony Harris' "Aluric". It was this that convinced me that I should resurrect
my old hobby. Thus the "Druni Language Project" was born.

Idakin, ta disu bashit latsagese zarzari "khay" vey "ra" onyara!
(Therefore, the answer to your question is both "yes" and "no"!)
