Welcome to your feel-good weekly news wrap.

From prayers to promising words from country icon Dolly Parton to a Nobel Prize close to home and the Aussie woman smashing a Guinness World Record, there's so much good news to share in this week.

And in headlines today, a French appeals court has increased Husamettin Dogan’s sentence to 10 years for raping Gisele Pelicot while she was drugged and unconscious; Hungarian writer Laszlo Krasznahorkai has won the Nobel Prize in Literature; Louis Tomlinson says Liam Payne’s death has “completely put a pin in” any plans for a One Direction reunion; the Australian Women in Music Awards celebrated women, non-binary and gender-diverse artists in a major ceremony.
