Good to see such detail! I'm not really sure you'll need a writer though, as you seem to know exactly what you're talking about and a writer would need all of this stuff explained. I've found (with IW) that I get irritated by other people writing stuff for the mod, so I tend to find myself doing all of it.

I suppose what I'm saying is: if you know what you want, and you clearly do, then perhaps keeping all the central creative stuff under your direct control is for the best.

Getting the exact content has taken years of work and input from various people so i think they will get credit come the final release. The only reason I'd like a writer is because my descriptive wrtiting skills are not the best and it would be nice to have someone embelish on what ive done/written.

I'd post the map that i made but I fear i have lost it when my HDD was last formatted a few weeks ago, i can remember most of it from heart though, it does allow me to expand it a little more though as me and a friend managed to invent some more features of where the world goes at the edges.
