Writing for the women's magazines is fun and rewarding, but don't assume it's
easy! The competition is exceptionally fierce, so if you want to be successful, study their guidelines thoroughly,
read samples of the magazine you're targetting, write what they want (not what you think they should publish!) and then submit,
submit, submit.
There're a number of brilliant writing websites giving
out guidelines but I feel it's always best to obtain the current guidelines direct from the editors as their requirements
change so frequently.
For comprehensive listings of magazine markets as well as agents, get hold of a copy
of The Writers' & Artists' Yearbook. But do remember that magazines go out of print/change their guidelines between editions
so they may be out of date before they're even published. They look good on your bookshelf though!
