Well, the Australian Horror Writers Association has their competition on again this year. I came second in the 2005 flash comp, won the 2006 flash comp, then didn't enter in 2007, so I thought I'd better do something this year.
I've written a story about deaths on the Pacific Highway, set at a particular point on it that I saw a lot growing up. If you click here you can see a bridge to the left with a sharp bend on the left side of it, on the Old Pacific Highway. The reason that section is now the old Pacific Highway is that it was a nasty black spot. A family friend's brother died there when his tractor went into the river, and they get a mention.
I'm not sure the story has the legs to win a comp, but you'll never, never winnit if you never, never submit.

I thought it was pretty good :-)
I don't see a link to the story, am I not in the special club to be able to read these before they're published?
I've mailed it to a couple of other writers, Chore. If you wanna give some critique I'll send you stuff, sure.
Oh, and happy birthday for tomorrow :)
