Gary Wonning (TheFloridaHoosier) HI:
I'm Gary, I traveled to Australia a few years ago and spent a month in the out back learning much from the aborigines. Loved every minute of it. I just published a photo book about my adventures. Australia:Life in the out back.
Love Australia and happy to be part of the group.

Thanks for that Andrew, but you need to start your own thread in the Author Spotlight section, and promote your book there...

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/group_...

Have a look at what other authors have done, and if you're not sure how to start a new thread, just ask:) But please do that, and delete the post from here, as our authors need to promote only in their section, or posts will be deleted. http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...

Hope you've had a lovely Christmas Day:)

Missa | 12 comments Hello fellow Aussies :) I'm Ashleigh, new to Goodreads and obviously this group! I'm 23, from Tasmania but live & work in WA. I guess most of my favourite books fit into the young adult category although I don't think I'm particular to any specific genre. I got a Kindle for Christmas so I'm getting used to not flicking through pages or knowing how much of a book I have left to read! I hope you all are enjoying the summer and holiday season :)

Margaret, That's exactly my thoughts towards my tbr list too. It's a lost cause, so I now just use it as a buying guide

K.M. Golland (kmgolland) Hello everyone,
I've just joined this group and discussion. Well at least I hope I have, sometimes when on these sites I feel deja vu or just stupid!
I'm 31 and an Aussie Mum of 2 little people who are currently sleeping peacefully hence my ability to be here typing right this minute. I have just recently published my first novel as an ebook and are very excited with where my life is heading currently. I'm pleased to have found a wonderful group to be a part of and discuss many topics.
Happy New Year to you all, where ever you may be and how ever you may be celebrating.
Kelly

Hi Michael!

I finally made it too... Yay!

Thanks for inviting me. As with most other authors on goodreads, I spend the largest chunk of my time in cyberspace, writing my next novel or chatting with fans on facebook & twitter - which has been so much extra fun over the holidays!

But when I come back to Earth, I usually land where my feet are planted; in the beautiful Lockyer Valley in Qld, which is finally recovering from that horrific inland tsunami in 2011.
