It isn't a real town, but instead an ABC studio lot. As a matter of fact, it isn't even the first time this set has been used! The town of Eastwick is actually just a refab of the Stars Hollow set from the tv show Gilmore Girls.
I know, I'm disappointed too. I had always wished Stars Hollow was a real town. I bet Eastwick would be a pretty amazing place too.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
