New Zealand Book Month starts today

Technically the opening celebrations happened yesterday in Wellington but for the rest of us, it starts today.

The winning authors for 'Six Pack Two' were announced. Congratulations to Charlotte Grimshaw, Jennifer Lane, Elizabeth Smither, Faith Oxenbridge, Tracey Slaughter and Dave Armstrong. You can pick up a copy of their stories for only $6 from your local book store. Quality New Zealand writing at a really, really good price. Read about the winners and the judging process here.


NZ Book Month organisers will also be releasing a guide to '50 great New Zealand books' to get you started. You can pick one of those up from your local book store too. Or you could just pop into your library and grab one of the books from the display.
