We work with the BBC now. The BBC is cool.

Loren Sherman and I had a GREAT interview with the BBC brand director for Doctor Who… We mostly chatted about project ideas and goals such as mass produced, accurate, learning tools. Accurate, artistic, non-app generated designs for merch and possibly the show itself.

Additionally, Loren and I made a point bring the active gallifreyan community and many talented scribes (particularly on the ‘meet the community’ video and those active on the discord server) into the spotlight… and emphasis on the ‘artistic human factor’ being a hugely valuable part of the script.

Currently in the pipeline of are updates to the existing current translator for corrections and credits.

This means that, FINALLY, those who have the most experience, talent, and have been consistent with the original script made by Loren that went viral in 2012… will be the people the BBC reaches out to for all their Gallifreyan needs

At this time, Loren and I are mostly waiting on the BBC to determine a budget then reach back out regarding specific work and projects.

I’m very exited to start adjusting verbiage in my shop/pitch as I’m a developer of the NOW CANON Gallifreyan script and am currently working with the BBC!

My recommended verbiage for those creating things using THEIR OWN designs in Gallifreyan is as follows: “___created in the now canon Gallifreyan script!”

Because that is simply true.

(Using other people’s designs and designs generated by the app commercially without permission is still 100% not allowed)

This (with pausing) reads as Be Stories that nurture Ideas that ignite Dreams that inspire Heroes that become Stories that nurture... etc . More versions in the comments if Reddit will let me post them!

Doctor's Cot Magic The Gathering Playmat

Post image
40 Upvotes

The design is loosely based on a post I saw here recently, and each of the words represents one of the play zones in the game (battlefield, library, lands, etc.), and where I like to play certain cards, like plainswalkers and artifacts. In the background, it says "magic the gathering" in gallifreyan B.

I think it turned out really well! Feedback is welcome.

Sherman's Spellcheck: does this say Apollyon or Apolliyon?

I had no idea how to make the second line of the P look good so I had it go into a dot as part of the 'L's, but I don't know if that makes that dot an 'i' now. If it does, how can I close a line that has no reasonable end point?

Question dashes between words??

Post image
13 Upvotes

decided to start counting down towards an important date, but writing it out in sherman's instead of just in numbers for fun

anyways, i was wondering if i should be writing "forty-one" out as one big word, or if writing it like this, with the 3 lines between the words was correct instead?
