Dear @straczynski, if you ever need professional languages and writing systems created for the aliens in the Babylon 5 reboot, I'd be happy to serve. 🤓

@marypot @RachelKenobi @starwars That said, I totally would conlang for Star Wars if they asked me. 🤓

@marypot @RachelKenobi @starwars I had to look up what Ghor is. No, according to fandom, dialect coach Marina Tyndall created the conlang. https://t.co/V4oAa3vkzQ
