Chapter notes: Dark Farm

As I post each chapter, I will be adding Chapter Notes that give background to my thoughts, ideas and style when writing that chapter.

I hope my Chapter Notes will inspire you in your own writing. They certainly help me to reflect on mine!

Chapter notes 1: The buzzard

Chapter notes 2: You came

Chapter notes 3: Home is where the sideboard is

Chapter notes 4: Bad news morning
