Who's in March 2016's Writing Magazines?
Yes, it's that time again; each month comes around so quickly...
Who's in March 2016's magazine? The magazines probably won’t be in the shops until 4th February so DON’T EXPECT THEM UNTIL THEN.
If you spot yourself, please let us know which magazine and WHICH PAGE; and the name the article appears under if it differs from your Talkback name. If you spot someone else, PLEASE LET THEM post the details here.
Remember: if mentioning a story, don’t give away the ending.

Newsstand readers should be able to get their copies on Thursday as normal.
Actually, as you were. I never get round to read it until about 2 weeks after it arrives anyway.
You could try a writing competition without a theme. How about Writers' Forum?
Google Writing Competitions and something else may come up where your story fits the brief.
I wonder where my magazine is... It's normally delivered on the same day as everyone else's. Perhaps my postie fancied a new hobby.
Ana - would the story work in a women's magazine? Look at womagwriter blog (run by our own lovely PM) for word counts etc.
Or, as Carol said, there are plenty of competitions around - its just finding one that will suit the length and genre of the story.
I meant to enter the children's poetry, but I missed the deadline.
