    One word of warning: You'll stand a much better chance of being published if your first book is under 100,000 words. Huge books do sell, but generally only from established authors and often as parts of established series (compare early to late Harry Potter novel lengths as one obvious example).

    Wow, 14 and writing. I knew a girl who also wrote with 14 (she started even younger) and what can i say...she was very talented. Her stories rocked. So I hope your writing-adventure goes well, Deadclock7!
    If you feel like it, post an excerpt. I am really curious now

    I'm glad this thread has gone on for a bit because I woke up this morning and realized something Deadclock7... I did not post the correct borders for you. Here is JUST the layer for the Borders. You can add this to the main map and set the layer on Color (you can play around with other layer settings if you want to see some different looks). Hopefully, you haven't started editing the border version yet because this will allow you to have both versions in the same file. Just turn the border layer on or off for whichever you want. I also had the layer opacity set to 60% but you can play around with that as well.
