Industry database Inbaseline.com is listing Bryan Holdman as Executive Story Editor for the 2009-2010 season of The Vampire Diaries. (So he’s the guy in charge of supervising the writers, banging the scripts into shape for production, etc.) Holdman was previously a writer and executive story editor for Kyle XY, which many of you know by now is TVDtv Executive Producer Julie Plec’s former show. He also wrote episodes for Everwood (which featured TVDtv actor Steven R. McQueen) and Hidden Palms (Kevin Williamson’s last television venture).

Andrew Kreisberg has joined the show as Co-Executive Producer (second-in-command, if you will). His previous producer credits include Eli Stone, Fringe, and Boston Legal, and he was also a writer and story editor on The Simpsons.

So, the Vampire Diaries chatter amongst the Atlanta acting community has been non-stop since the CW upfront, and just the other day director Marcos Siega confirmed he was headed to Georgia once he wrapped Dexter. And now we see that Atlanta is listed as the shooting location on InBaseline.com. So, yes, that all adds up to quasi-official confirmation that The Vampire Diaries is shooting in and around Atlanta, Georgia, as not-so-subtly hinted at by Williamson last month.

And, finally, Jezebel in the TVD forums alerted us to this nugget of information on Katerina Graham’s Wikipedia page and we’ve confirmed with Julie Plec: Bonnie’s last name is BENNETT in the pilot (not McCullough, and Plec does say “as of the current cut”).
