Read the beginning of Olivia's fictional narrative draft.
She was single-minded in her pursuit of a safe space in which to build her new nest. From dawn to dusk she searched throughout the
woods, eyeing every mid-range bow and branch and every tall canopy, but none would do. Each time she found a location that felt sturdy, she
would notice a flaw. One branch was too near a school full of little humans who liked to throw balls in the air, balls that could disturb a nest and
even knock it to the ground. A crook of an elderly tree that looked safe ended up smelling of rot. These simply would not do. This nest would not be
a solitary space for her alone. This nest would be a hiding place for her eggs, and eggs led to family, and family was her dream. So when she
stumbled upon an abandoned human home with a lonely oak in the yard, she felt she had found a safe haven.
