Thankfully, I’ve found time since my last post to make some progress on the book. Here’s a brief status report:I’ve changed the working title to the Forgotten Realms Travel Guide: Faerun, Kara-Tur, and Zakhara. I had been calling it a trail guide, but the book discusses both trails and water routes, so I felt this title was more accurate. I’ve edited the title of this thread to reflect the change.The travel guide’s page count stands at 656 pages, with most of the page layout complete. About 30 of those pages are stubbornly resisting all efforts to fit within their allotted space. The page count may shift slightly as I grapple with those tricky sections in the weeks ahead.I’ve added some illustrations from DMsGuild art packs to supplement my stock art, and I’ve used images of details pulled from full illustrations as spot art where needed. Between full illustrations, spot art, and 117 maps, roughly half of the 656 pages include full-color artwork.I believe most of my largest tasks on this project are now complete. I’m now polishing things up and fixing problem areas. Given that I have 656 pages and hundreds of pieces of artwork to finalize, I suspect I still have months of work ahead of me. I’ll check back in as I make more progress.</blockquote>
