MW PN guidelines

The latest pocket novel guidelines from My Weekly.
How is everyone? We're currently away in the mobile writing retreat – although I confess I'm not doing all that much writing. More of my time has been spent on the beach and visiting castles and gardens. You'll believe me if I say it's research, won't you?

Of course it's all research! It's my firm belief that much writing takes place without a pen, pencil or keyboard in sight...

It's all grist to the creative mill. Locations, people you see or overhear. Hope your notebook is filling up nicely.

I always get new ideas when in different locations, then develop them in my head, maybe making a few notes. Train journeys are especially good for this...

Useful, thanks, Patsy.

I vaguely remember something about My Weekly PNs being from the heroine's point of view and I can't remember seeing one with dual POV like a lot of romances are now. Does anyone know the answer to this?

The guidelines state they're 'usually' from the heroinne's POV but 'ocassionally dual' so I think you'd be fine with that approach if it works best for the story.
