In the competitive world of publishing it's nice to come across editors who are encouraging and genuinely want to give newish writers that step up the ladder.joanne foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12694158807826275846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4752133508404720649.post-35859784610790539802010-12-12T21:32:07.443-08:002010-12-12T21:32:07.443-08:00This was so interesting.

We all have to start somewhere, after all. 'Debut', is aimed more towards newer writers as David says.

It's frightening to see how there are so many submissions to the proportion of actual acceptance!! May I ask a teensy weensy quetion? I know with women's mags they tend to use already established writers over again - is it the same with Mr Howarth's publications? I'm so glad they hold competitions though!!

I have a soft spot for Scribble - they published some of my early short story efforts in 1999/2000 (when I used to write as Anne Oliver).<br /><br />XXSuzanne Ross Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08561888635304578484noreply@blogger.com
