Lachlan Alexander
Lachlan Alexander lives in a small Australian town called Jan Juc on a eucalyptus-lined road with the Southern Ocean on one side and sheep paddocks on the other. His short story ‘Threads of Truth’, about how we remember the dead, was shortlisted for the 2025 Commonwealth Short Story Prize. When not writing, he runs on trails, cooks, and reads – though not all at once.
