Hello. Let me formally re-welcome myself to the list

Hi, again.  I lost Internet access for a few months... I don't expect
anyone to remember me.  I never posted much.  My name's Joel Heikkila.
I'm 15 years old.  I reside in Toronto, Canada.

I've been interested in languages for years.  My interest probably
started when I was about 9, when I started taking French in school.
Since then, I've studied various languages and obtained sufficient
skills in French to read most things and carry on a simple conversation.

Since about 12, I've been interested in conlanging, starting with my
very first language, Renark.  It was basically morphed English and
French vocabulary with mostly English sentence structure.  However, by
the time I lost interest in it, it had adopted a case-esque like
structure.  I've since lost all the material on it, but I can quote one
sentence from it:

Go citesen ni-am renark neve nebu progua speci de a domenco.

Since then, I've been working on a Culture, Nekilotyri.  It's still
mostly on paper.  The language itself has existed in several different
forms.  The recent incarnation is a complete re-write from scratch.  If
you'd like to see the first few things about it, it's at
http://indigohelix.ath.cx/neq/index.html  Be sure to check out the
culture test in Mark Rosenfelders style at
http://indigohelix.ath.cx/neq/htt.html

The language itself is quite analytical.  I haven't got far with it, but
hopefully further details will reveal themselves in the next few days.
