Giveaway Winner - The Art of Language Invention by David J. Peterson (creator of Game of Throne's Dothraki language)

I'm sorry my posts have been so sporadic of late. I had 4 hearings scheduled this week alone coupled with your usual client emergencies and the pile of work my boss gives me. I'm barely hanging on here.

However, I do owe a giveaway winner for our latest giveaway. Plus, expect another giveaway coming up soon.


This looks like such a great book, I'm glad someone will get their hands on it shortly. From the creator of the Dothraki language from the hit HBO television series, Game of Thrones, David J. Peterson takes us into what it takes to invent a language.

Our winner of a single copy of The Art of Language Invention by David J. Peterson is:

Bridget from Milford, OH

Thanks to all who participated, I've emailed the winner. As I mentioned, there will be another giveaway later this week.

Giveaway - The Art of Language Invention: From Horselords to Dark Elves, the Words Behind Worldbuilding by David J. Peterson (Creator of the Dothraki language for Game of Thrones)

I've got a great giveaway for one copy of David J. Peterson's new book, The Art of Language Invention: From Horse-Lords to Dark Elves, the Words Behind World-Building. As you well know, and not just because of the title to this post, Peterson is the genius behind the Dothraki language in the Game of Thrones television show. 


As the publicity rep explains:
In THE ART OF LANGUAGE INVENTION, master language creator David J. Peterson lays out a creative, highly accessible guide to language construction for science-fiction and fantasy fans, writers, game creators, and language lovers. A perfect entry point into an art form as old as civilization, THE ART OF LANGUAGE INVENTION is a wild linguistic adventure that will have readers ready to rub shoulders with horse lords and dark elves and perhaps inspire them to create their own languages.
