I suggest you work with RAW, just take your time forget about mapping fast. Try a decent temple, some houses outside of it, make a small village. Then start with small hunting places and from there just grow. Try to think: Would I play this? Is it 2 small? Will it bother me? Does it look good, do I like it? Most important is have fun mapping and don't let anyone get to you.

It doesn't look very good and it's quite small, shape's isn't the thing you should be focusing on. Try to make these things with RAW palette, a temple, some different houses (Normal one, Desert style, Jungle style)do some naturing, make some mountains and a couple of caves. Just enough to get your own style.

Try mapping only with the RAW palette, no autoborder or doodad.
 
what i did?
i look at pictures and which one people likes most, and i try to do same thing but not copy it, like.. with my style.
start look at people, how they map and try to do almost same thing, and then when you can do it without looking anywhere, then start your own map-project, map your own world :)

I wouldn't suggest that because alot of people will whine and call your work a copy. Play some fantasy games, they are great for help. For example, Assassins Creed, love their city's.
