“It is not down in any map; true places never are.” Herman Melville, Moby Dick
lemuria (lė`mū´rĭ`å)
Lemuria, an ancient civilization existing prior to and during the time of Atlantis, was believed to be located in the South Pacific.
Lemuria is also sometimes referred to as Mu, or the Motherland.
At its peak of civilization, the Lemurian people were both highly evolved and very spiritual.
While concrete physical evidence of this ancient continent may be difficult to find, many people "know" that they have a strong connection to Lemuria.

Introduction
Mapping Lemuria is a fictional biography of a woman as told through her travel journals. Each chapter focuses on a particular journey to a particular part of the world at a particular point in her life. The continuity between the chapters is provided by the lessons she learns about herself through her travels.
Just as early maps began with the coastline, filling in continents gradually, the ten chapters provide the outline of her character and its evolution. The reader is able to fill in the substance of the person, extrapolating the intervening years.
No one sees us in our entirety – we are seen in snapshots: when we are known, how much we have changed, what has happened to us, where we plan to go. In this way, the book illustrates the difference between how we perceive ourselves and how others see us.

My goal in posting this novel as blog is to elicit comments from all readers on style and content in order to become a better writer.
