heh, no problem. I'm blathering "outloud" so I am also wordy as I think things through. :)

My heroine's a cop in a fairly large department. So, yeah, no small towns just on that basis alone. She's not like Liz Forbes on TVD (sheriff of a small town), Bridget's a homicide detective.. Not to mention the problem of immortals going unnoticed in a small town - they'd have to decamp every ten years and that'd be a pain the ass. At least in a city if you move across town and change your hangouts you'd probably never intersect the people you used to know.

Which is all to say, it has to be a biggish city. In some ways LA is almost too big, since it starts requiring reasons beyond coincidence for everyone to interact (in a smaller city there's only one courthouse, rather than the several we have here, for example), but I think I have a reason.

I figure in the end if LA turns out not to work, I can always change it. But NaNo isn't exactly the time for taking time to research a new city. :)
