Things!
First, vis
ysabetwordsmith, This blog post about names.
There was quite a bit of thinking about names this weekend, as Rion-who-calls-me-Lyn was visiting. :-)
Names have power. Choosing your own has quite a bit of strength.
I should write a piece about someone being forcefully renamed.

Via haikujaguar, I hear there's this thing called #Lexember.
I will be creating a word a day (2/day today and tomorrow) for the language in the Rin & Girey story.
What sort of words would you like to hear? What sort of cultural tidbits would you like to see along with them?
