About the Book
The yellow house is an abandoned property located within walking distance of my former residence in Bakersville, North Carolina. I would stop in every so often, to wander through the rooms, investigate some pile of papers a little closer, or cautiously peer inside a cupboard. I even tried on some of the clothes hanging in the bedroom closet. They were much too small for me. I did not know who lived there or why they left—nor was that story crucial to my relationship with the space. Instead, I sensed a calming vitality in the things that remained despite their fall into desuetude. In the early mornings the light was soft, all was quiet, and I felt at ease.

Doors opened for Corn during this time, and she decided to walk through one, which led her to the Southwest in pursuit of a Master of Fine Arts at the University of New Mexico.
