Question I'm preparing a short story based in Tennessee and was wondering if there was any areas in Tennessee that haven't changed in over a hundred years. I've described a mountainous region out in the middle of nowhere where people vanish and the closest towns are small and far apart. Is there anywhere like this I can use as a base of reference?
Answer William:
You win the prize for the most fascinating question that I've ever been asked!
I have a couple of areas in mind but I'd appreciate a day or two to mull it over. Please send me your e-mail address for a personal reply. Mine is jyares@aol.com.
Also, if you could give me a flavor of the story line and when it takes place, that would be helpful (I'm not a writer and I'd never divulge your idea).
