Current Events > How do you think these are as locations for a book?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I've been trying to decide on locations for my book set in America for a long time. It's actually very difficult. Not just where its set, but how many locations there are, 1, or a few. I think I might've decided now.

San Francisco, California - represents the West Coast

Cedar Rapids, Iowa
Bloomington, Indiana - represent the mid-West

Worcester, Massachucetts - represents the East Coast

I think this is a good set of locations, and spread over quite a wide area, which can work quite well. The only geographic region missing is the South (lol). What do you think of this? I think of the mid-West as the "American heartland", with a nice mix of cities and farms; the East Coast is the really old area, with old buildings, and lots of people who came from early immigrants; and the West Coast means glamour, hot weather, and excitement.

Unless you have 73 unique locations in your book, you can't call yourself an author.

You should probably write what you know. So, wherever you're from.

back on the fake book again eh?
