Never heard of it! ;-)

As others have said, you may not be as prolific in the number of languages,
but you're far ahead of many (most?) of us in terms of how much you've
developed your language!

It sounds very interesting! Do you have anything you could show us?

Unfortunately, mine are still mostly all on paper. I've begun collecting all
my notebooks and folders together, and typing it all up, but I haven't
gotten very far yet. I have half-completed web pages for two of my smaller
languages at http://thomasleigh.tripod.com/conlang.html. But the two main
languages I've made aren't online yet. That's my project for next year! :-)
¡Hasta luego!
