Even for a totally fictitious town or neighborhood, it might be cool to see where the different scenes play out in relation to each other.

It's come in handy as the years go by. But I've never used a map while writing. Maybe I should try! :)Karilyn Bentleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04359102189839118744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028147191445531358.post-41484182255946902042016-03-01T16:13:26.770-06:002016-03-01T16:13:26.770-06:00Hi Vicki!

So maps really help me to do that. I also love Google Earth.

I'm checking out that brand right now.

Though I can see where it would be helpful, especially if you're writing about a place you've never been or a country you've always wanted to visit but haven't had the opportunity. I guess I'm just an armchair traveler. LOL <br /><br />Best of luck with the new series (wink). Glad that you've found something like working with maps that helps with your writing process. I might have to think about adding that to my creative process and see if it adds an additional dimension to the story.
