Romance writers

Mills & Boon are running a New Voices competition that will give one budding author the chance to get published. All writers have to do is to visit the website and submit the first chapter of their own Mills & Boon. (Click on the title of this post to go there.)
Deadline September 22nd. 
The top ten writers will have their work showcased on the website and each will be given a mentor in the form of an established Mills & Boon author. Then the public will vote for their favourite of the ten and the winner will crowned in November.
If you want to enter remember that cynicism shows on the page as clearly as a spelling mistake. And  read a Mills and Boon. Better still read several. Research. Do your homework. And then do your best work. There's no other way with competitions...
