Me: Okay I'm gonna make it so the languages in this story are literally just mirrors or real ones but with different names slapped over them so i don't bog myself down building yet ANOTHER fucking conlang.

Me, later on: Damn, none of the languages I can find really fit this particular group of people, what do I do?

Another Fucking Conlang:

Me: No

Another Fucking Conlang: :^)

Me: GOD DAMN IT

#me @ myself for the billionth time: i can't believe you've done this #I HAVE TO STOP MAKING CONLANGS I LITERALLY NEVER FINISH THEM!!!!!!!!!! AND THEN THE STORY GRINDS TO A HALT!!!!!!!#tbf tho i have actually gotten a much better start this time around #because i got the consonants and vowels set in stone right away #which pretty much informs like. every other thing about the construction of the language #bc it influences what word combinations sound 'natural'#and can even help you construct a believable 'accent' for when those characters speak a different language #tibtalks #i have been working on story development basically most of the day #and a significant portion of that was figuring out the fucking IPA finally
