wow, starbreeze, cool. it's just a little place i escape to. im revising a map
I use my fictional world to escape too. Its currently only the size of Europe. Part of my motivation to make my world as real as possible is so I can escape and feel like I really have left this world behind.

I haven't been working on the story for very long, so it has only been small problems, the big ones will surely come later.
You are right, but if, like me, you read through this thread you will find many of your problems overcome before they even arise.

As for new letters, well, I have been working on a Rune language used by the ancient elfin race which formerly populated my world, and it really is hard. There are so amyn symbols you need, especially if, like me, you don't just want letters, but sounds like sh and ck and th aswell. I wish you luck with it.
