Second Draft of Abbey Map

Some trees were added to the map to make it a bit more organic.  In addition, there is a table and benches beneath the tree in the lower left, a place from which to contemplate God's work in the abbey and discuss things of import.

First Draft of Abbey Map

The purpose of this blog is to document my progress during the month of November 2013 as I attempt NaNoWriMo for the first time.  30 days.  2000 words (4.4 pages) a day.

Move of October has been spent researching history and trying to write my plot outline and supporting documentation.

Part of that preparation means coming up with mock-ups or diagrams of certain key locations.  One of those is the Abbey of St. Knud on Odense.  Attached is a plan view of the abbey (my fictional view of the abbey) that I completed earlier today.


Note that I am taking a few liberties with the precise year that things take place in.  For example, according to Wikipedia, the abbey was founded in 1096.  I need it to be in place prior to that.
