title: Writing tips for authors.
abstract: Writing an article for publication may seem intimidating to you at first, but believe it or not, it can be exciting and fun. When you initially accept a writing assignment, research a clinical "gut feeling," or describe a nursing scenario, it may seem like a gargantuan task, but when you break it into small segments or steps you may be surprised how quickly you will complete your project. This article will offer some helpful hints or tips to get you started. Many of the tips will apply specifically for submission of an article to insight; absorb all clues that might be helpful and disregard anything that won't help you. Remember, you can get your article published, and the insight editorial board and peer reviewers only want to facilitate your success!
