National Bookshop Day - August 20th

What a great initiative from the Australian Bookseller Association. Saturday, August 20th is the inaugural National Bookshop Day, all booksellers are asking, is that you wander into your local bookshop and shout 'Celebrate'. We're conducting a colouring competition to coincide with this day and details of that are attached here.

We'll make sure there are plenty of photos of the prize winners and we thank Random House for providing the prizes. Thanks Lyndal.

Dinner With Carolyn and Eileen

We are very pleased to be hosting a dinner with Carolyn Landon and Eileen Harrison on Friday, August 19th at the Rhythm Cafe. Details are in the flyer, please click here.

The book "Black Swan" will be available for sale on the night. Come and help us make this a memorable evening.

Final Twilight Author Series - Ruth Carson.

This is the pensive Ruth that we saw from time to time last Friday evening. She certainly had the audience in the palm of her hand and the question time afterwards could have gone on forever. Here's what one of the audience had to say the next day by email:

"Wonderful night! Ruth's talk was brilliant! I loved her book and now after hearing her speak of her agony, hard work and determination to make it happen, I am full of admiration and appreciate the book so much more."

This is the end of the author series and what better to finish on but this type of comment.
