So here are three unique settings I've dropped my characters into:
The top of a waterfall
A tree house
A Ferris Wheel
Let me tell you, these make for great romantic settings ;)
And here are more common settings I've used:
The kitchen
A car
The front porch
Yep, not quite as unique, but there you have it. What are some unique settings you've placed your characters in? What are the ones you use more often?

Those are clever, Cindy.
I've had mine at an Oyster Festival, and I had one of my MCs climb a tree. That was fun.

a county fair, a barn, a funeral home, a farmer's market...
I'm kinda drawing a blank for this one!
I like both of those, Wendy. I don't mind commonplace settings at all but I really enjoy unique ones, too :)
Katie, a farmer's market--I like that! Colorful and unique, and a definite opening for romance, too!
Inside a large green booger, travelling through time. I hate my characters.
I'm not sure I can think of a super-unique setting I've written. My current story is in Amish country, so that lends itself to a unique setting in general. :) Love the waterfall idea...muy romantico! :)
Unique - a mine shaft, a lighthouse, a saloon, a wrecked train car?
I tend to have a lot of scenes that take place out of doors...which is weird, since I'm not really an outdoorsy person.
My debut novel takes place in a small Gold Rush-era town in 1870's California, so coming up with unique settings was tough. What I tried to do was use as many different settings as possible within the confines of the small world my characters inhabit.
I love the farris wheel idea. That does sound soooo romantic. Tell me they got stuck at the top!
Okay, for normal I have kitchen and coffee shop scenes. For unique I have feed rooms and the woods. Now I'm shaking my head, I seriously need to get more creative!!!!!
