   1.    Determine the setting of your story (bush, north, farm etc.)

   2.    Find examples that provide details about your setting, record with page #
    -      trees: “Sam walked passed hundreds of tall fir trees.” (pg. 6)

   Do not double space your notes. You will need the room.

I look forward to reading about the setting of your novel.
