Re: documentary

Well, they've been and gone. Shots of me reading my Quenya poem under a
tree, in my study, at my telescope, etc. (It was a poem about the stars...)
I was thoroughly ':9++!£ off with Quenya by the end of the day, and they're
going to stay in touch. We talked quite a bit about conlanging, but I'm not
sure how much of it was recorded or how much will survive the editing
process. What was interesting linguistically was that one of the team was
German, and spoke to his colleague by rapidly switching between German and
English - in the style of "Es ist all gone". Unfortunately, someone
mentioned the E-word in the course of the discussion. He was politely put
right.

today (it's 1.30 now) who want to film me speaking Quenya! But it looks as
though they're after language stuff in general so I ought to be able to get
a fair bit of conlanging stuff in too. They found me via my website, so get
working on yours - they do have an effect, you see!
