Wish I could say that. Used to practice about 20 years ago. The only martial art that made sense(i) to me. Had to stop due to an injury and never came back.
"Never say never" and "Better late than", so who knows? :)

I'm working with a very good editor if you're up for an overseas venture (not that it matters with video conferencing tools available as they are nowadays).
Let me know if you want the reference to her.

Editing your own work is tough. Requires exercising that self-criticism muscle. I find it easier to train for an Ultra Marathon, so Kodus on that point.

I meant the book, but the map story is interesting as well.
You should post more about how you developed it. I entered to see the map, and then saw the full chapters and started reading.
How did you create the map?

I like it how you share the "raw" materials in that blog/website. Do you just finish a draft and publish there or is there an editing phase involved?

Yea. I work chapter after chapter. Hard won experience from writing the whole book without editing gradually (heck, I'm still bleeding from it).
I think it also helps getting better from chapter to chapter.

It's one of the plans - to get feedback, then get it edited seriously and publish.
I mostly write for feedback now - not expecting to become the next Sanderson at any point ;)

So far so good. I probably don't use it as I should - mostly use it as a draft + preliminary self editing + beta reading platform.
I try to promote the story to get feedback, so the beta reading part will actually happen ;)

Can you elaborate? Do you draft and edit immediately? Like chapter-by-chapter?
