Jim Henry interviewed David & Sai for Usona Esperantisto, the journal of Esperanto USA. See the article (PDF) or entire issue (PDF).

The version published in Usona is excerpted from a much longer version, which is published on Jim Henry’s website.

You may also want to take a look at HBO’s official Making of Game of Thrones blog, which has glimpses of the production and interviews with other people involved in working on the show. It’s an immense project. We’re honored to be contributing our part alongside so many other talented people who are giving as much attention to detail in all other aspects of the show as we are to the Dothraki language.

David was interviewed by Wired’s GeekDad, Dave Banks. Take a look!

Joshua Hartshorne recently wrote us an open letter entitled “Fantasy TV in the service of science,” posted as a guest blog by Scientific American.

David Peterson (creator of Dothraki) and Sai Emrys (LCS president) emailed him immediately after its posting. David’s response, kindly posted by Scientific American, takes into account what was discussed during a fairly lengthy conversation.

We hope you enjoy the dialogue. If you have more to contribute, please make a blog post and email dothraki@conlang.org or twitter #dothraki with the link.
