The romance fiction market is huge, whether it’s short stories you’re interested in or novel writing. This course will cover the short story romance market, including outlets such as the women’s weeklies, literary magazines and competitions.
We’ll also focus on which publishers accept romantic fiction novels. One of these is Mills and Boon. Writing for them can become an enjoyable and lucrative career, so we’ll take a closer look at what writing for them involves.
If you’re serious about getting your romantic fiction published, it can be useful to join The Romantic Novelists’ Association. They’re passionate about raising the profile of the genre and they have an excellent new writers’ scheme as well as an aspiring writer scheme, both of which can help you on your way to becoming a published romance writer.
This workshop is run by Budding Writers in partnership with The Writers Bureau.
