Writing for publication: it's a matter of personal style.
One of the best ways a nurse practitioner can make a lasting contribution is through the published word. A nurse writer publishes to inform, instruct, challenge, and inspire. This sharing of ideas is critical for professional growth and visibility. The writing process may appear at first glance to be difficult, yet the tips and techniques described in this article demonstrate that writing is a craft which can be learned. Although the process that results in a final, published manuscript may, at times, appear lengthy, the approach to preparing a manuscript is simple, requiring a modicum of skill and a strong desire to share knowledge.
