Writers Plot bookshop closing online store
At the Incorporated Society AGM last September, it was resolved to close the online Writers Plot Bookshop, and dissolve the Incorporated society.
This is being done in a managed fashion over a number of months. All books on our website are reduced while we work through returning or donating books. If you are an author and have not heard from us about your books - please email us at writersplotreadersread@outlook.com
Books can still be purchased through our online store - all are reduced for sale.
We wish to thank the community for their support over the last 8 years - we have appreciated it.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
