Re: tolkien?

I had nothing to do with Tolkien. I read his books, didn't realize all the
wealth of beautiful languages painstakingly put together from natlangs
over, literally, decades. I am only now noticing these aspects.

Nay, what made me start was a micronation. I know not how many of you have
heard of these, but they are effectively a concountry--like a conlang or
conculture, but a country. I already had a micronation and conculture (if
it deserved to be called that) so I decided to make a language.
