My First Conlang

A discussion on Conlang some little while ago prompted me to wonder about our early if not very first conlangs, and I know some of us have been working on the stories of how we became, or first discovered that we already were, makers of languages. To that end, and for anyone who might be interested, this page is for links to either a short description of those first tentative steps into the Art, or even stories of how you came into the Art in the first place.
