#UnofficialMapVember

Mapping out The Dome

Getting started with my Worldember Prep, I found the Unofficial MapVember Challenge created by Wordigirl. It's a collection of 30 map related prompts which I thought I would use to get a start on planning out The Dome in my world. For NaNoWriMo, I am writing a novel about the world Beyond The Dome but haven't thought much about The Dome itself. These prompts have been great to jump start some thinking about how that city might be organised.

Reflection (28th November)

This has been an interesting challenge. I’ve enjoyed thinking about my city differently, but I haven't found making maps a fun experience. I use a small laptop and to see the full editing page on both World Anvil map editor and Dungeonfog, I have to zoom out to at least 67%. This makes the text small and hard to read. I'm not a fan of the eyestrain. I'm glad I tried but don’t expect many maps from me in the near future (unless I get a monitor for Christmas).
