It's probably because there are many big publishing houses located in New York City, as well as agents are here, and newspapers. There is so much opportunity in New York City being that it's a big city with a lot of stuff happening, which means there is certainly more to write about. Also, New York City is a fun city to live in, a city that doesn't sleep!

Maybe the cachet. It is New York after all. Maybe writers gravitate to New York after they decide to write. Personally, I prefer Maui. And I especially prefer it about January 15.

NY used to be the hub of all publishing but that has changed with the world wide web. Publishers can be found around the world and writers no longer need to travel far to find one. NY is still a place of great opportunity but just not the only one any more.
