Signed hardbacks and a message in a bottle

First, a bit of news: I have some hardbacks left over from We Have Ways Fest, so I’m selling signed copies in my shop, at the same price as the standard hardback.

Message in a bottle

This is an amazing news story. In 1916, two Australian soldiers on a troop ship wrote letters to relatives, put them in a bottle, and threw it overboard. The bottle was found by a family collecting rubbish on the beach last month.

The family traced a great-nephew of one soldier, and the great-granddaughters of the other, and will be sending the letters to them.

You can read the full story, along with photos of the letters and the men that wrote them, at ABC News.
