What are some comfy settings you like reading/writing about? I personally like anything to do with winter and college/early 20s young adults making their way through life in an urban setting.

The Conan Doyle short story The Five Orange Pips starts off with one of the comfiest scenes in all of English literature.

>“One of the classic settings in fiction, a little world as reassuring as imperial St. Petersburg or Victorian London, is suburban Connecticut in the 1950s. If you close your eyes, you can picture autumn leaves drifting down on quiet streets, you can see commuters in fedoras streaming off the platforms of the New Haven Line, you can hear the tinkle of the evening’s first pitcher of martinis; and hear the ugly fights then, after midnight; and smell the desperate or despairing sex.”

Jonathan Franzen writes that in the foreword for my edition of The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit
Not necessarily Connecticut but you get the idea
