TnT: the mountains are blocking the view
Hello friends! It's a lovely day in Scotland albeit the freak weather warnings.
Reminders: contest 14 submissions, due Monday the 20th, at 10pm GMT (5pm EST).
All the recent fiction I've been reading has been set in cities, or near cities. Perhaps this is because ~interesting things~ tend to happen in crowded places, along with a side helping of pollution and claustrophobia. But what about other places? After all, cities aren't everything. What about romantic comedies set in tundras, or murder mysteries set in jungles?
How do you choose settings? Would you be willing to consider odd places to set stories? Why or why not?
