SmallBluePrinter.com

I just love finding websites out there to help me with my writing projects and SmallBluePrinter is no exception.  As I attended various sessions at the writing conference in April, many of which were on revising, authors suggestion creating maps or blue prints of your scenes, character's rooms, houses, etc.  When I started thinking about the blue prints I needed to create for my own book, a large listed formed.  I went on a search.

Google.com images are great.  I was able to find blue prints of a couple of houses that matched what I had in my mind, but there are still some left.  There's a reason I have my characters walking into rooms the way they do and I want to make sure I can picture a structure that has what I'm looking for.  Well, this is where SmallBluePrinter comes in handy.  I can create my own blue print and even better, a floor plan.

My main character is an artist, which means things are placed in her room with some kind of purpose or symbolism.  I wanted to be able to draw out her room, so I can get the items right: her bed, easel, desk, etc.  SmallBluePrinter allows you to create floor plans complete with furniture, visualize a blue print in 3-D and design a garden.  Plus, it's all free.  They also have a version you can download.  Go check it out.
