Two cool things!

Map for Skate the Seeker by @shah_alom1 on fiverr.com

A Map, a Map, a Map!
First, thanks to Md Shah Alom of fiverr.com for making this map, which will be located at the front of Skate the Seeker. Book two covers a lot of ground, and I wanted to give readers a visual way to keep track of where everyone was going to and coming from. The artist does lots of good work - not just maps - so you should go check him out if you're in the market for just about anything design-related.

I've always been drawn to maps. If there were maps in my textbooks at school, those were what drew my attention before, during, and after the accompanying text. When it comes to fiction, the maps that accompany the sprawling worlds of  writers like Tolkien, Martin, and Sanderson were always easy wins for me as a reader.

That's all from me, for now.
