A Place Called Somewhere

The Art of Creating Fictional Towns & Communities

Every place begins with a little imagination.

Have you ever imagined a town that doesn't exist? A little village tucked between the mountains, a charming Main Street lined with family-owned shops, or a cozy community where everyone knows everyone (and probably everyone's business)? What if you could bring that place to life?

A Place Called Somewhere is a 51-page interactive worldbuilding workbook designed to help you create your very own fictional town, from its first winding street to the people, places, and traditions that make it feel like home. Written by Shayna Galicia, creator of Maple Hollow and founder of The Little Wonder Post, this workbook guides you through the process of building an imaginary community that feels wonderfully real.

WHAT'S INSIDE?

Across five thoughtfully designed chapters, you'll learn how to:

• Discover your town's personality, atmosphere, and identity
• Choose a name and establish its geography, streets, and neighborhoods
• Create memorable residents with personalities, relationships, and histories
• Dream up local businesses, landmarks, and gathering places
• Develop community traditions, celebrations, and a calendar of events
• Build believable local history and everyday routines
• Discover storytelling opportunities that allow your town to grow and change
• Organize your ideas with interactive worksheets, creative prompts, and planning pages

WHO IS THIS WORKBOOK FOR?

Whether you're a writer developing a setting for your next story, an illustrator creating an imaginary world, an artist building a creative brand, or simply someone who loves inventing places that feel real, this workbook is for you. You don't need to be a professional writer, an experienced artist, or even know what your town is called yet. All you need is a little imagination.
