After a lot of research, and help from some friends, I've updated my database of fiction submission guidelines for women's magazines. It also includes a few ezines and other publication opportunities.

I haven't enquired how much money this bot wants from me, nor have I read all the many paragraphs in the email – but I have to admit it starts off really well!

The book is free to download, should you wish to compare my stories to the above.

Does anyone know how to make comments show on the blog on my website? (Wordpress)
Currently they don't show if you just go to the blog section - only if you click on the heading for a particular post.

Guardian has article on Best Self-Care Gifts for Christmas, including stuff like £115 silk pillowcase and £75 bath salts.
But there’s lots of self-care we can do costing little or no money. Take a walk. Look at the moon. Pet a cat or dog. Make yourself a nice cup of tea. Meditate. Write.
