Mills and Boon

I've never been much of a Mills and Boon reader, never been any of a Mills and Boon reader actually, but here's a competition if anyone out there is. Write a Mills and Boon type romantic story for the Pat Kenny radio show, 900-1000 words by 9th May 2007. You win lots of Mills and Boon and get a flash trip to talk to them.

I do read some chick lit. It seems to be taken as derogatory now but why should it be? Of course there is some dire stuff out there (at least it's published!) but there's some great stuff too, not all frothy and predictable by any means. See Marian Keyes, See Jane Austen. Sure girls gets boy but it's a great read in between.
