It is with absolute delight that we announce the winner of the #bushchristmas Booktopia Voucher.

Christmas is here!!!

Week 7 has been and gone so our Christmas is Coming series has come to an end. Tomorrow is Christmas Day. Yay! We spent last week with some fabulous authors ...

There’s no denying home baking is on the rise and my last guest on the 'Christmas is Coming series' is a much loved MasterChef guest and Country Women’s Association Champion. She is none other than Merle Parrish.

Christmas is coming next week and December has felt really special due spending time with some wonderful authors such as these: 

Love, Sweat and Tears was my best 'find' for 2013. A beautifully written novel about one woman’s incredible journey through grief, fear and love to a lifelong dream of working with animals.

Christmas is Coming and you can win the presents.

'Regardless of gender, anyone looking for a heart warming, funny rural novel, you are going to LOVE, I repeat LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these books.' 

Christmas definitely feels special when you get a chance to spend time with some wonderful authors such as these: 

Before chasing her dream to become an author, Jaye worked in newspapers, radio and television as a news and sports journalist. In 1988 she became Australia's first female presenter of a live national sports show, and later fronted evening news on regional television and ran her own public relations business.
