This week, Julia interviews our worldbuilding warrior, Angeline Trevena about bookish maps and the release of her latest worldbuilding guide ‘How to Map Your World’. They cover:
- How she got into making maps
- What to consider when placing map elements
- When maps can be used (not just at the front of a book!)
- How to commission a map and what to look for in a designer
- And more!

I was born and bred in a rural corner of Devon, but now live among the breweries and canals of central England with my husband, our two sons, and a number of turtles. I am a dystopian urban fantasy and post-apocalyptic author, a podcaster, and events manager.
In 2003 I graduated from Edge Hill University, Lancashire, with a BA Hons Degree in Drama and Writing. During this time I decided that my future lay in writing words rather than performing them.
Some years ago I worked at an antique auction house and religiously checked every wardrobe that came in to see if Narnia was in the back of it. I’ve still not given up looking for it.
