I'm Laura. I started Novel Kicks back in 2009 as I wanted a place to discuss books and writing - two loves of my life. As someone who has anxiety, these two things give me, and I am sure countless others, a much needed escape.
There is a monthly book club, writing exercises, prompts, reviews, author interviews, competitions and guest posts. I cover many genres and I hope there is something for everyone.
I grew up by the sea in Dorset and currently live in Poole with my husband, Chris and three cats. I love writing and have a BA (Hons) in Creative Writing from Falmouth University. I am writing my first book. If only I could stop pressing delete. Chris has threatened to stop it from working. Haha.
I have always loved creative writing since I was in first school and would very much like to meet my teacher, Miss Sayers, to say thank you for all the encouragement she gave me then.
When not writing, I love reading, cats, Disney, singing (I can't sing but this doesn't stop me,) and falling into a good TV show or film. If I could step into any fictional world, it would be amongst the characters in ABC's Once Upon a Time.
I love reading many genres and discovering new authors.

So many good entries. Bear with us. We’ll announce the winner as soon as we can. 🙂 x
Thank you all for entering. The winner will be announced later today. x
For 2 years I have had “subscribe to Mslexia Magazine” on my to-do list. My to-do list is VERY long. For every item I cross off … I add many more. I rarely cross off items because, well, I am busy writing (aka mucking about with words) and even busier performing those words.
If I had a subscription it would be like time travelling to where I could get excited about reading it, being inspired, contributing, then, when fully digested, telling others about it.
If I had a free years subscription to Mslexia Magazine I would use the time saved to write a masterpiece. But then again … it would only be a haiku. Cos if I took my to-do lists seriously, subscribing would be much quicker than writing this response. Maybe that’s why my to-do list keeps growing? Will I learn? Or will I carry on writing when I should be being sensible?
I love it, love it, love it ….. and I’m sure I’m a better writer because of it!
I would like to win a subscription because my current one won’t last forever and I’m a poor, struggling writer, who can’t afford luxuries such as magazine subscriptions (and Mslexia is the best writing magazine on the market..!)
Picked up Mslexia magazine when I was in London last week; lovingly caressed it and then replaced on the shelf as it is no longer in my budget. All those writing ideas and dreams – Miss Mslexia!
Gave up work and Mslexia to gain time for writing. Success around the corner. A sign from writer’s heaven will be warmly received.
Pick me! Pick me!
I’m already a writer (of the corporate copywriting kind) but I’ve always believed I have a novel in me. I hope this will be the year I turn my hand to fiction writing and it would be great to have some inspiration and guidance to help me make the leap! X
The last thing I won was a cake when I was 12, it was nice to eat but otherwise pretty useless. I am now 42, If I win this subscription I will have a year of movivation that just might encourage me to finish my book. If I do I’ll be sending NovelKicks pretty cakes to celebrate.
I’m putting the finishing touches on my first novel and would love a subscription to such a supportive magazine.
I love this magazine and would love a subscription even more!
I have never read this magazine but it sounds so good I would like to start.
What better way to procrastinate on writing your book than with a writerly magazine! I love the online version of mslexia and would really love to win a subscription. Thanks!
I never read this magazine but if I did win it you would have a new reader for life.
I’d like to win the subscription so that I can regain the joy of reading poetry again – to welcome it back into my life, which is full of obligatory reading.
I get up. The cat doesn’t answer when I call. The laptop whirs to life. I write, the keyboard speaks to me with a tap tap tap. I say hello to the postman. I write some more. I teach online. I write some more. I have dinner with my partner. Jon Snow presents the news. I chat with my partner but his voice is a little too deep, the timbre not quite right. I miss women’s voices.
Writing is such a solitary pursuit, that Mslexia offers one of the few ways to feel part of an inspired community of writers, at all stages of their careers.
I am in the process of deciding whether to make the leap of faith by abandoning my day job to focus on my writing career. This would help tip the balance!
I’m living benefit to benefit at the moment, as my health is bad, and one of my cuts was mslexia. I write all I can and love the magazine. It’ll be a while until I can afford it again but I miss the connection to the professional writing world it gave me. I’m pretty isolated here.
I came across Mslexia through the recommendation of a friend. The magazine fills your heart and mind, both with the valuable writing inspiration you can pick up from others and through the way it kick-starts the fertile blossom and flow of all your own writing ideas.
Behind every great writer is….a crippling addiction to reading. Mslexia is one of (very) few publications that makes me feel slightly less guilty about being a literature junkie. A year long hit!
It’s a fantastic mag for any writer, male or female! I used to subscribe when I was working but since I retired my income has substantialy decreased. It would be lovely to get it regularly again.
I’d love to win this. I’ve read issues in the past and spookily met a lady at the London Book Fair who’d written for it and when chatting to her thought, I really should hunt down a copy of it again and lo and behold this competition appears! Surely it’s fate, if I cross my fingers hard enough?? xx
I’ve subscribed since the very first issue but, during that period, my income has shrunk. Nearly every month I wonder whether or not to cancel; but I stick with it. I love the writing, usually, and aspire to emulate some of the best. What a boost a year’s free subscription would be.
this is my year to get on with my writing. I would love a subscription to help me along the way! x
