my first riddle is...
what is the next number in the sequence?
1
11
21
1211
111221
312211
13112221
1113213211

this took me quite a while to figure out!

After that is
13211311123113112211

The way it looks to me is that you start with one, and each number after that "describes" the previous one.

thus
1
11 ("one one")
21 ("two ones")
1211 (one two, one one)
111221 (one one, one two, two ones)

etc

It seems to fit because Drewdad got the same as me.
