I always love to hear what our members are working on (it’s part of the reason I started the #LookAtMeFriday thread in our FB Gold group) – and it seems many do a lot more than feature writing or copywriting!

So, if you’re seeking book gifts for your loved ones, look no further – our crackin’ list of newly-published titles were all written or contributed to by our talented Rachel’s List members. Have a browse.

Here’s the list…

Catherine Best – Ultimate Caravan Trips: Australia (because a home on wheels is so hot right now).

Jo Stewart – It’s Always Spritz O’Clock Somewhere. Classic cocktail recipes! Jo also edited Ocean Pools – a must for saltwater swimmers.

Alex Vangas was highly commended in the Stringybark Short Story Competition and was included in the anthology.
