Join me in welcoming DJ Edwardson! DJ Edwardson’s favorite authors are J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis.

I’m obsessed with fictional maps. I love looking at them, and once I come to love the story that takes place in that world, I’m even more enthralled. So when I started to brainstorm my Blood of Kings trilogy, one of the first things I did was draw a map. Now, you may not be an artist, and that’s okay. …
