So now to the giveaway. As I said there are four books being given away and one of those will be specifically for overseas readers. The books are:
Woongarra Willie Wagtails...
...which is Coleen's latest book to be published.
Australian Christmas Birds...
...which would make a great Christmas gift for a little one.
Like a Lizard Lapping Dew...
...which is a story about the lizards you might have in your back yard.
Bargara Spur-Winged Plover...
which is a poem about the Plovers which live in Coleen's area.
You may have entered in the Christmas giveaway for the first three of Coleen's books so you have another chance to win one of the books. Coleen has signed these books as well. To enter just leave a comment in the section after the post and, if you live overseas, just mention that fact as you will go into a separate competition.
If you are like one of my friends whose name won't be mentioned but Sally she can't work out how to comment, so just fill out the 'Contact Me' section which is at the right and I will then enter you into the draw which will be held on Sunday 15th June Australian Eastern Standard Time.
As usual I am at the cutting edge of technology and the winners' names will be drawn out of a hat by some random person who might stray into the area. :-)
Have a great weekend!
Update: I just met up with my friend whose name won't be mentioned and Sally she tried to leave a comment on her iPhone a number of times but it didn't go through so if anyone is having trouble with leaving a comment you can email me at nannachel@gmail.com. I just realised that you can't view the email contact form on the sidebar if you are on a Smartphone so sorry about that.
Normally when you try to leave a comment you get a number of options so if you don't have a Google Profile or a blog then choose 'Anonymous' and leave your name when you comment if you would like to go into the draw for a book.
UPDATE on 8th June: I know that a couple of regular readers are on holidays so I have changed the closing date of the giveaway to 30th June. Everyone is welcome to enter whether you are a new reader or have been visiting here for a while.

ReplyDeleteBecause I am living in the northern hemisphere I'd like to be in the special draw for those from abroad for your wonderful give away.
I spent one month in Australia in November - December 2009 having the time of my after that month forever positively changed life in Perth, Sydney, Canberra (Jerrabomberra !).
I feel blessed, a very happy and lucky woman, but winning one of these books would be really fantastic!
Thanks for offering a chance to win.
Cheers!
