Dragon King's Other Daughter and New Romlang

Having mentioned1 that I've long wanted (since 1986) to write a story called "The Dragon King's Other Daughter", I decided to look at my notes on it. I found the disk with all my story notes and load the files onto the current computer. Then I saw that I didn't have any notes for this story, so I guess I'll have to write some.
The background comes from the Lotus Sutra, chapter 12 (Devadatta), where the Dragon King's 8 year old daughter appears. This story (assuming I'm able to write it!) will be about her younger sister who's not very interested in enlightenment; it was inspired by an actual dragon-cat named Byakuren (White Lotus).
In other news, I've been working on pinning down and documenting the details of another Latin-derived conlang. The process has been going very smoothly, not like my usual muddled efforts. I won't have much to say about that language here.
