Attention to Details: the Address Book
by Kaz
At the heart of any good fanfic are the details that make it believable. The little things that a careful fanfic reader will notice if you get it wrong. So here I've decided to help you out a little. From Slayer: An Expanded and Updated Unofficial and Unauthorized Guide to Buffy the Vampire Slayer by Keith Topping, The Watcher's Guide, Volume 1 and 2 by Christopher Golden and Nancy Holder and the Angel Casefiles: Volume 1 by Nancy Holder, Jeff Mariotte and Maryelizabeth Hart, I've compiled a list of addresses and in some cases phone numbers of various BtVS/AtS characters. I've also listed a few other geographical facts that might be useful.If you have anything to contribute, please email me! (more will be updated as I find the info!)
