Want to write for Harlequin?

For those of you who don't know who or what Harlequin is, here is a little blurb about the company on their website: "Harlequin is one of the world's leading publishers of books for women. The Toronto-based company publishes more than 110 titles a month in 34 languages in 110 international markets on six continents. These books are written by over 1,300 talented authors worldwide, offering women a broad range of reading from bestseller fiction to romance, from young adult novels to nonfiction, from African-American novels to inspirational romance, and more. With half of its books sold overseas and a tremendous 95% outside Canada—it is both the country's most successful publisher and one of its most international businesses."

Harlequin publishes many of the popular and best-selling books each year. I have read quite a few books from this publisher, and each book has been unique and a thrilling page-turner. I definitely recommend reading a book published by Harlequin.

 Here is a quick list of 10  authors that have been published at Harlequin: Nora Roberts, Debbie Macomber, Gena Showalter, Silvia Day, Megan Hart, Elizabeth Goddard, Jeaniene Frost, Heather Graham, Cynthia Cooke, and Sharon Ashwood

Earlier this week I was poking around on their website and found a link called Write for Us. I had no idea they took submissions from writers and even had a list of guidelines for the many sub genres of romance they publish. So, if any of you are looking for a chance to get creative and submit a novel to a well-known publisher, click on the link above!
