WELCOME!

I started this blog in 2010 to help nurses learn some tricks of the trade that might help them write for publication. I've recently updated the blog and will begin to include not only "how-to" entries on the art of writing well but also to include tips on writing for stress reduction. Both nursing students and practicing nurses can benefit from learning to write well, sharing their stories with other nurses, and learning how to cope in today's stressful practice environments.

Nurses: Write for Publication, the title of the blog, is based on a presentation I gave a few years ago for the Brookdale Community College Continuing Education & Professional Development Division in Lincroft, NJ. The nurses who attended learned how I moved from nursing to writing as a career and how they could, too. Several attendees had unique approaches to patient care and just wanted to write about them. I got great satisfaction from seeing their bylines a few months later in nursing publications.

All nurses have great stories to tell, and this blog is aimed to help you do that. I've included entries on my personal journey as a writer and provided some insights and inspiration on how to get started doing the writing you want to do, whether for your own stress reduction or for publication. Questions and comments are always welcome on any of my posts, whether present or past. ~Gail
