First up, in good news for my overseas readers, the UK edition of Dark Country is officially released on 4th March.

I know, it doesn&#8217;t make sense, but neither place charges shipping so either way it&#8217;s a great deal.

I&#8217;ve been lucky enough to read a proof copy of this, and it&#8217;s a great read &#8211; suspense, romance, planes, and the far North Queensland land &amp; seascapes.

Rachael took me and a couple of other knitting writers around some SF yarn shops, and a great day was had by all of us. A day or so later, at the conference itself, I bumped into Rachael in the coffee queue, and so we sat together and had a great chat before she headed off for a pitch appointment with an editor. Now, I can&#8217;t remember which editor she pitched to then, but not long afterwards a very sensible one offered her a publishing contract &#8211; and Rachael&#8217;s first book will be published in March, in both the US and here in Australia. However, in one of those quirks of publishing and marketing, in the US it&#8217;s titled &#8216;How to Knit a Love Song&#8217; &#8211; and in Australia it&#8217;s called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.randomhouse.com.au\/Books\/Default.aspx?Page=Book&amp;ID=9781741669183\">&#8216;Eliza&#8217;s Gift&#8217;<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"Eliza's Gift by Rachael Herron\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomhouse.com.au\/system%20pictures\/9781741669183.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"119\" height=\"183\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So, there you going &#8211; some great reading for March!<\/p>\n<p>(And there&#8217;s more coming up in April, but I&#8217;ll leave that for another post&#8230;)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s some great books coming out in March!
