Earlier this year we ran our Love to Write writing competition in conjunction with Prima magazine. We are absolutely thrilled with the amount of submissions received for the writing competition and the high quality of writing. The winner will become a published Mills & Boon author and have their first chapter published in Prima Magazine later this year. Our fabulous judges had the difficult task of picking the Top submissions for our final 8 shortlist finalists.

Meet Emily Kerr

… her romance truly swept us away!

Name: Emily Kerr

Location: North Yorkshire

Occupation: Regional TV journalist

Why I love writing: I spend my days writing factual stories to be broadcast on the news, but when I get home I love spending my evenings writing fiction. I’ve been scribbling stories on bits of paper ever since I learnt how to write. In fact, some of my earliest memories are of asking my mum to spell the big words for the stories I wrote in the car on the way to school. Fast-forward several years and my debut romantic comedy ‘Who Does He Think He Is?’ was shortlisted for the Festival of Romance New Talent Award. I love creating new worlds and seeing characters come alive on the page.
