Welcome!

Hehe, it is funny how writing can lead to wanting to draw your own maps. That is a big part of how I got into fantasy map making.
Anyway, this is a fantastic community and if you have question, just ask.

There is WIP section if you want feedback for your maps and there is a mapping elements sections if you want to start making your maps that way.
(note it takes 5 posts before it becomes significantly easier to post.)

Cheers and good luck,
Omri
