A segment of a fantasy town map, showing buildings, garden plots, trees, footpaths, streets, walls and water.

My town-maps style, if you zoom to the building level, is simplistic, just basic shapes. Many other cartographers include a lot more detail. But I designed this style around a blend of building info and land-use info, aiming for clarity above, say, roof textures.

A neighborhood map cropped from the larger Hammondal city map. A fantasy port city.

I often get "Age of Aquarius" stuck in my head when writing about the neighborhood of Turnbridge, in #Hammondal.

This will make little or no sense to anyone who _reads_ what I've written about Turnbridge. 😆

One of tonight's writing tasks is just writing some simple rules examples.

Of all the things to kick my ass a bit, this is kicking my ass a bit. 😆

But I'll push through because then I get to spend the rest of the night writing about the #Hammondal theater community.

A neighborhood-scale crop of a larger fantasy town map. This is the neighborhood of Knoutside, in Hammondal.

It's nice diving back into campaign design with the #Hammondal campaign (companion book to the city guide).

2 of my first 3 books were campaign modules, and ... then I just did a lot of stuff that WASN'T that, for a lot of years. Nice to return with experience.

A kind of demographic heat-map of the fantasy city of Hammondal.

It's become apparent that the character-creation chapter is going to be a much richer affair in #Hammondal than may be expected, up to and including a character sheet. 😄

Poking at the Choragus map again. This one's still 66% unfinished since it's for a down-the-road project that might not even happen. Today I was just sculpting some footpaths and cart-paths and adding some foliage.
