Please audition with the following excerpt OR a selection of your own choosing:

The blue house begged to be broken into.

It pleaded, empty windows like puppy dog eyes. Sagging porch a pitiful pout. The whole town knew it was unoccupied. Mrs. Wells had been admitted to the health centre, and at ninety-six there was only one way she was coming back out. No one was looking after the place. The lawn grew wild and yellow. The weeds stank.

Please, it whispered.

The house watched Morgan in the dark while her friends drifted down the street like reckless tumbleweeds. They laughed around the rims of Gatorade bottles spiked with vodka. Crowed about their plans for summer vacation.: gGetting out of this hell-hole ditch in the badlands. Somewhere green. Somewhere with blue water.

Morgan stared back at the house. The night breeze made it breathe. Rustled the drought-tight grasses. 

Please.

Morgan’s lips parted, a thought caught on her dry tongue. Why?
