You all know the rule: Location, location, location!
Well, my next series is set in a Gold-Rush era town in the Sierra Nevada range near Yosemite National Park. Sound familiar? Oh, yes, thatās near where I live. š
So, if you happened to read my new novella that was part of the CUPID TO THE RESCUE anthology, then you know I set the story in a town called: āProspect Creek.ā
The problem is: I can never remember the name. I fear that bodes poorly for my series. So, please, help me rename the town.
(I canāt use the name of an existing town in the California foothills for a number of reasons, including but not limited to the fact people are quick to point out when you make a mistake. Thatās less likely to happen with an imaginary town.)
Hereās my current list of contenders:
- Whiskey Ridge (new personal favorite) āWhiskey Ridge ā where love is served straight, no chaser.ā
- Fremont Junction (John C. Fremont owned lots of property in this area.)
- Carson Creek (after Kit Carson)
- Stockton Creek or Sierra Creek or Sierra something...
- Agua Fria (actual 1880s town, but not one any longer)
- Vallecita (original name of my little town)
