I discuss how to name fictional places, alongside tips on how to world build! It's been a while since I've visited the topic and added in a few more examples, alongside discussing how to go about naming regions (thanks to those who commented on the last one!).
My own world building focuses on my post-apocalyptic series, so the examples I provide are mainly from my own world.

I discuss how to outline a novel series with Scapple, software that allows me to clearly direct, plan and create! Thought Id highlight it in case others hadnt heard of the scapple software (its from the same folks who make Scrivener).
