Hi Gemma

So sorry to hear you have not received your response. We have had one other instance where a response did not get through to the recipient, we’ve no idea why. If you would like to send a query email to submissions@hmb.co.uk quoting the title of your mss, the date you sent it in and your full name, or pseudonym or both, whatever you used to us when you sent the manuscript in and we’ll check this out. Equally importantly could you confirm your email address in the query because if your response has not got through to you then we’ll need to resend. We’ll be back with you very soon.

Best wishes.

Sheila

Sorry, but did you see my earlier post about not having received a response? I’m a little unsure of what to do. Could you please advise?

cheers and thank you

Well August is out, and so are the responses. Once we’ve caught our breath and had a chance to gather all the stats I’ll be writing a blog to update you all on the fast-track experience, what came out of it and some pointers on what you can do next.

But I wanted to say right now, it’s been a fabulous success and we are thrilled and delighted in London. We had 175 submissions, which is incredible. The editorial team in London has worked tirelessly, to read your submissions and give as much feedback as we could in the time we had. The editors have all been amazing, really fabulous, I’m so proud to work with such a wonderful team. We’ve seen many fabulous voices, many of whom we haven’t seen submit for the line before, sent for lots of material and sent lots of feedback (we are so heartened by your responses). If your work didn’t make it this time, then keep going, there’ll be some more advice in the blog, it’s all a learning curve and eventhough the fast-track is over, we are always open for submissions and we are always looking for new talent. We also have the Mills & Boon New Voices competition coming up – check it out at http://www.romanceisnotdead.com. Yes, you can enter with a first chapter of a Medical Romance, or any series in the Mills & Boon imprint from 6th September.

The Medical fast-track has been quite a whirlwind, but such a truly, truly exciting one and I want to thank you all for making it such a success.

Thank you, so much. I think you’re all amazing.

Best wishes.
Sheila

Sorry to be a pain, it’s just that I haven’t had a reply yet, I checked Spam, but I haven’t had an email, just the automatic response.

thanks in advance
