So who won the Australia Day Book Giveaway?
Who won the haul? That’s what you want to know right? What haul? This haul! Which I have to say is a pretty amazing haul. But what I found amazing were your comments. Thank you guys. It was really interesting to see what your favourite poems were and the reasons why as well.

Australia Day Book Giveaway Blog Hop
So the lovely people at Book’d Out kickstarted this off.

A Blog Carnival's In Town:
First off, a blog carnival is a regular round up of weblog posts/entries/articles on a particular topic. This week, the lovely folk at thursdaybram.com have accepted two of my posts for their 61st round of articles on the Business of Freelance Writing. The two posts in question are Parts 1 and 2 of the list of things writers/freelancers need to know and both are on this site. Blog carnivals are great ways to get a lot of attention for the writing you publish online. You can submit your articles to blog carnivals by going to BlogCarnivals.com or else you have to wait for someone to notice you. Cheers, Marisa.
