Happy New Year, everyone! I love how the arrival of a new year brings a new begining and a clean slate. 2007 wasn't the best year for me personally and professionally, but with the new year now arrived, I want to start out with a positive attitude that things can only get better! I wish everyone here the same in 2008 as well.

I was so disappointed that I was not able to participate here as 2007 came to a close, but alas the fates (i.e. real life) conspired against me. I want to jump back in though and my goal is to pick up where I left off in my CC3 Undermountain-style dungeon mapping thread as soon as possible. I hope to combine some of the techniques for creating your own style found in the December 2007 issue of the Cartographer's Annual as well.

I look forward to seeing everyone's work, learning more, and hopefully helping others to learn something too.

Here's to a great 2008!
