Writer's Symposium

Long Description:

The authors of The Hobbit, various Star Trek novels, and A Wizard of Earthsea created languages to make their worlds come alive. It seems easy enough, but how do you keep your characters from having names and discussions that look like someone slapped the keyboard? Panelists discuss methods authors use for creating “authentic” fictional languages and reveal their own techniques.
