I never cease to be astounded by this kind of productivity. I have been conlanging for over 40 years off and on and have succeeded in constructing exactly ONE conlang, amman iar. I have been struggling for more than a year now to get a second one off the ground, but it still only qualifies as a sketch, not yet worthy of being called a conlang. How do you guys do it???
