Mills and Boon are running a novel writing competition with Prima magazine.If you can get the outline and opening chapter to them by the end of March you're in with a chance of an excellent prize package which includes publication, a cash prize and books. UK residents only are eligible to enter.
Assuming I can get something ready in time, I plan to enter a romance set partly in a cottage garden, a little like this one.
Hi Patsy - I think Mills and Boon is out of my 'ken' - but good luck with the entry and a cottage garden will definitely improve romance! Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteThanks, Hilary.
DeleteGood luck Patsy! Its not a genre I write.
ReplyDeleteI do write romance, but whether it's M&B type romance I'm not sure.
DeleteWhat a great opportunity! Thanks for sharing and wishing you very good luck with getting an entry in there!
ReplyDeleteIf I get something in, I'll consider that an achievement in itself, Lexa.
DeleteGood luck, Patsy!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Alex.
DeleteLet's collaborate. I'll write the car-chase and murder scenes, you write the lovey dovey stuff.
ReplyDeleteThat could work, Mac!
DeleteThanks, Patsy. Will look at this.
ReplyDeleteWell worth a try if it's the kind of thing you'd like to write, Rosemary.
DeleteSounds like a great opportunity for those in the U.K. Good luck with your submission, Patsy. When I belonged to the Exeter & District Writers Club (now Exeter Writers), we were all desperate to write a Mills & Boon! One of our members (sorry, can’t remember her name now) was actually accepted and went to London to meet the Editors. We were so thrilled for her.
ReplyDeleteThat must have been exciting.
DeleteSince I cant join in, I hope you win, Patsy.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Oscar.
