'The Last Page' Published in Australia's 'Fast Fiction'

Antarctic Camp

One of my old personal favourites, a short story titled The Last Page, recently got a second outing (it was first published in 2008 in The Weekly News) in Australia when it was published in the magazine Fast Fiction. 

The story concerns two scientists with completely personalities who are tasked with keeping their Antarctic base ticking over during the winter. Needless to say, anything that can go wrong, does go wrong.

The title of the story, whether I picked it consciously or unconsciously, is similar to my all time favourite O. Henry story, The Last Leaf., which I strongly suggest you have a look at if you haven't done so already.

Below are links to my most recent Global Short Story Competition winning story, my short-listed story for the National newspaper (Abu Dhabi's annual short story competition) and another story that appeared on the Every Day Fiction site - where you can leave a comment:
