Audio version of the short story, Togorang, by Sean Costello.

Sean Costello's short stories are inspired by 3 items nominated by readers of his blog, Capital Yarns.

Horse Agistment Paddocks + Skates Alive (Erindale) + Kingsley's Chicken

Capital Yarns #8 - Beware Of Hairy Canberrans

Capital Yarns is an experiment in storytelling developed by Sean Costello. He invites social media users to nominate three items for him to weave into a short fictional story set in Canberra, capital of Australia.
