Grateful to have been considered for this and looking forward to reading the winners in the next issue of @Meanjin! Big thanks to the judges + everyone at Moorabool Shire Council.

Congratulations to the two highly commended stories also: 'Cicada Coda Countryside' by Tyler Mahoney, and 'Switzerland' by Chris Ames.
