Because, if you make the slightest factual error, it will be thrown back in your face as long as you're recognized.If you can research something, so can your readers.Virginia Enoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-79693794485188863912013-08-22T22:24:54.161-04:002013-08-22T22:24:54.161-04:00I live in the South and I read romance.

I don't want a travel guide but the setting enriches the story and allows me to get glimpses of places that I may never see with my own eyes. I like the variety of locales presented but I wouldn't want the stories to ALL be set in the same geographic region as I think it would get boring.ELFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00507018016608103452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-80446202366582659992013-08-22T17:43:19.814-04:002013-08-22T17:43:19.814-04:00All I've got to say is the people of Savannah,...All I've got to say is the people of Savannah, Georgia were the friendliest people I've ever met. While we were taking pictures of one of the old houses under renovation, two of the construction workers motioned for us to lower the cameras so we could take pictures of them while they gave us various poses in front of the house. <br /><br />I told them we were romance authors and they had to remove their shirts for it to work. They laughed and said they were willing and made like they were going to remove their shirts. We had a blast in Savannah!
