So, the other day, I said to myself, "I'm going to make a quick map for reference purposes for this story I may or may not write."

13 hours later . . .

. . . that happened. And here I thought I hated map-making (I really wonder about geography and if I'm doing it right, which usually makes me drop my pen and walk away), but this looks like something I might see in a book! (I was/am very pleased, to say the least.)

After seeing this map, my friend was like, "You should check out the cartographer's guild. Sometimes, I go over there just to look and marvel."

To which I replied, "I would probably go there, look, and then cry in a corner because I feel inferior."

But I came, I looked, (felt inferior (those colors!), but didn't cry (in a corner or otherwise)), and found a very welcoming and helpful community; I read through some threads and saw how people offered critiques and suggestions in response to WIP maps, and I figured I would give it a go (the only way to get better is to hang out with people who are better than me, amirite?).

So that's why I'm here.

Hi hi. Nice t' meet y'all.
