I'm giving a talk on writing constructed languages in scifi/fantasy with lots of examples from fiction/movies/TV!
Tomorrow 2:15 EST. We're meeting on Discord. Link in the comments of the Meetup once you RSVP. https://www.meetup.com/toronto-science-fiction-and-fantasy-writers-meetup/events/290070077/

I gave a slightly shorter version of this talk at Fyrecon last year.
