Is there anything inherantly wrong with setting the book in Massachusetts? Apart from the idea that Salem seems rather a cliche in terms of tolerance of witchcraft. Did I set it there *because* I don’t have such ingrained memories of it as I would say, Pennsylvania, where I grew up? PA isn’t part of New England, but when I was growing up there had many similar cultural attributes, especially in small town terms. And the oldness of Old City Philadelphia is such a shame to waste when I know it so well…
Another nit to pick…
