The Ebook is now available (abridged)

I have published an (abridged) ebook version at last! It's about 100 pages shorter than the paperback version , but it's also cheaper, and more quickly and easily available (especially for those of you outside Australia). To get a copy google "smashwords, road wench" and it'll come up. I'll put the complete link with the rest of the links to bookstores. (Or click here: http://www.smashwords.com/books/search?query=road+wench).

Formats available are Kindle, Epub, LRF for Sony Reader, Palm Doc for palm reading devices, and online HTML and Javascript - so even if you don't have an ereader you can read it on your computer.

Hope you like it!

ABC Radio - Tune in to Today's Interview

How to get a copy from your local bookshop

Even if your local bookstore doesn't have it in stock, you can ask them to order it in for you. "Road Wench" is listed in the national book database called Global Books In Print, which gives booksellers all the contact details for ordering. Hope this helps!

The First Reviews...

Nicole Saturday evening 9 October (first to finish!)
"Just finished your book and thought it was a great read! A bit like Bill Bryson - makes you feel like you're there traveling - but funnier and more practical."

Marelda Sunday 10 October
"Your book is laugh out loud funny. I'm dog tired...but don't want to put it down!"

Daniel Tuesday evening 12 October
"I finished your book. I think it is excellent! A mix of humour and facts very much like Bill Bryson. Congratulations!"

Pam 25 October
"Enjoyed the read...it was like a saucy Lonely Planet!"

Kelly 2 November
"Loved the book - what a fantastic read! It brought back so many memories of my time on the road. Definitely a must-read for all those who have worked for a travel company in Europe, or any wanna-be tour managers out there!"
