    Map Hello! D.N.Frost here, fantasy author, cartographer, & world-builder

    Hello, everyone! I'm excited to be here.

    I'm a self-published fantasy author, a self-taught Photoshop cartographer, and a self-made world-builder. I also do fictional map commissions, which you can learn about at DNFrost.com/commissions. Or, check out my finished commission portfolio at DNFrost.com/portfolio.

    My love for storytelling drives me to build the Known World and tell its tales. I've been developing my saga for almost 15 years now. I do all my own writing, editing, publishing, marketing, and of course, mapping!

    I began doing fantasy cartography to make a map for my self-published novel. But...I got hooked! I made a map for the book, and a map for each of the book's four sections. Then I made a map for each chapter of the book.

    Now, Awakening has 19 maps. It's just as much an atlas with a story as it is a novel with maps. And for the sequel, Broken, I've planned even more!

    Here is the main map from Awakening, which appears beside the novel's Table of Contents:

    You can check out the full atlas of 19 maps at DNFrost.com/maps.

    You can also check out my free ebook, which matches up the maps with the story as it unfolds. Enter your email address on my site and you'll receive the download link! Easy.

    Thanks for this awesome forum. It's exciting (and intimidating!) to see so many fictional cartographers in one place!
