Guest blogging...

To coincide with the release of a certain rural romance book last week, I've been invited to fill guest spots on some lovely blogs. So my scant presence here may continue for a bit.

However, I thought I'd list those guest appearances here, for your interest.

July 25th Bernadette Rowley's Blog

July 27th Blog Bites with Romance Writer's of Australia

Zoe gets around...

Here's another Penguin author's pic of Zoe. Rural romance author Fiona Palmer (The Family Farm, Heart of Gold, The Road Home)  took this shot at her favourite reading spot in Western Australia. How cool is that backdrop?

At last!

Release date for Zoe's Muster  is finally here... 

 Happy travels, Zoe!!!

And you can check a nice review here!

Favourite flashmob...

I think this is my favourite flashmob so far -- a musical treat from Barcelona.

A handsome couple...

Lovely Helene Young posted this gorgeous photo on my Facebook wall. As a Penguin insider, Helene has an early copy, and I think her Zeus and my Zoe make a gorgeous couple, don't you?

Speaking of Helene and Penguin and gorgeous photos... check out this amzing promotion for Helene's latest release Burning Lies...

That's Helene next to the poster and they're in airports all over the country. Way to go, girfriend, and so well deserved!
Unfortunately I'm head down, madly trying to finish a sequel to Zoe's story, so I haven't read Burning Lies yet, but I'm hearing all sorts of good things. I'm sure we have a star in our midst.

Countdown to Zoe's release...

Excitement is rising at our house as it's only eight days now till Zoe's Muster hits the shelves, although apparently, the book's already on library shelves. One of my friends (a man, no less)  borrowed it yesterday and has read it and given his thumbs up!!

I'll be having a launch for Zoe at Mary Who? Bookshop in Townsville on August 3rd, so if you live in the area and you'd like to join in the celebrations, please let me know via here or my website and I'll send you an invitation with times etc.

Woohoo!

An extract from Zoe's Muster...

Fond memories...

It's my first baby's birthday today. She was born on a Sunday on a lovely tropical winter's afternoon... Now she's all grown up with children of her own, but boy, she was a cutie.

Happy Birthday, Em Bem. xx
