This will be maps, articles, and adventures site. I have around a thousand maps, and since I’m rearranging things as I go, it will take some time to put this together.

I built it myself, with no one helping me, except for the excellent tech support folks at NameCheap.com

I mention I built it myself as there are various people/companies around the Internet who pretend they helped me. They didn’t.
